It is not an IE bug. It happens in Safari too.
Not on "my" Safari (Win 3.0.3, after correcting the mentioned typo).


The version I use on Mac is Version 2.0.4 and this is the last
stable release. The rest are Beta I think...

Safari 3 is the only one available for Windows.


Yes, I know.

(Out of curiosity, I just fired up MacIE and while the trouble is
not obvious, there is a curious trace of it! If one is careful to
scroll *right down* to the end, there it is, the beginning of
what I saw before in Safari, but this time just a bit of the top:

Hmmm. Perhaps some padding/margin off (the white center is nothing but a
background image which is overwritten by the footer; and with IE Mac
were talking about a rather old browser). As long as no content shows up
below the footer...


Of course, there is no need to worry about MacIE, it would be a
big coincidence though if the little bit of the "fault" showing
up in that browser was not connected to the bigger fault that I
saw in my Safari first time and what you are seeing in WinIE.

It is frustrating not to have diagnostic facilities in WinIE and
other browsers like the 'real time' ones with the Firefox Web
Developer tools (where the fault does *not* show up!)

It is a pleasing site to look at and navigate in. Is there a
particular reason you are not using 4.01 Strict? Does the doctype
have any effect on this fault in Win IE?
