Hello I have a bug that has been haunting me for the past few days.

we have this redesign we’re working on for http://www.petpoint.com –

http://test.petpoint.com/redesign/index.asp

If viewed in any other browser the footer looks fine (even in IE7, 8)

When viewed in firefox the footer gets real messed up.

I cannot figure out this bug, I have tried to see if its something in the CSS but nothing i’ve tried as made that footer budge.

I could use any help you can lend. Not sure if you can get to the link so I can provide code samples on request.

As seen in firefox

as seen everywhere else

Thank you in advance.

    you have missing < leaving an unclosed </b> in this line:

    <b>24PetWatch microchips sold for companion animal usage/b>

    I think that’s compounding down.. it’s hard to debug because from that point on FireBug shows that FF is inserting <b></b> DOM elements/tags in weird places – sometimes wrapping your existing elements, sometimes, not for the rest of the source, which is subsequently breaking the footer.

    I see these <b> elements are not actually in your source code so it’s possible this one error is the cause, if not give a shout back

    even if the HTML5 tags won’t validate, a good check for other wrongly nested elements is the HTML Validator, though I’ve never seen FF do something quite this severe with non closed inline elements!
