I rushed to fix this when surprised by it first thing this  
morning (when it is convenient to look via my Winbox)! Curiously,  
a bit of padding-bottom on the footer2 fixed it. No other browser  
on my Mac, not even Mac IE (which you can see I have catered to)  
exhibited this. WinIE seems to interact with  
line-height/font-size and sets the height of footer2 very short.  
I noticed the cutoff and did this (which some people... no not  
you old hands ...) might find useful: turn a 1px border on to see  
what might be happening.  
 
In the situation where I use a footer, it is quite convenient to  
have any amount of padding within reason.  
 
Curiously, I notice different things in different browsers in  
respect to the placement of the text v the separators, nicest is  
middle, ugliest is when text is flush with bottom of vertical  
separators. Unaffected by padding.
