Huzzah!  That did the trick.  Thank you very much.  On short pages, not having
a border on the bottom of the footer didn't look quite right, so I made it
like the other boxes.  Now it looks quite nice, though I still need to test it
with IE.

I first tried using the instructions from the article Robert linked to.  It
was very informative, but I was having a little trouble getting it to function
exactly how I wanted.

As an aside, PHP really rocks.  It's so very C-like that it was easy to get
started.  The navbar on my new site is a single included file among all the
pages, but I was able to highlight the proper entry by using a simple PHP
function.  Very nice.  I don't have too much experience with either PHP or
Perl, but I find PHP far easier to read and understand.
