Weird floating table in Internet Explorer....

Hi all,
I'm trying to create a simple website for a small church ministry. I did all of the coding in Dreamweaver 8. Everything looks the way I want it to except for the very bottom "footer" table in Internet Explorer. If I stretch the browser window down ( I am in really hi-res ), the footer table follows. ( scroll down to see the black footer bar at the bottom of page ) It shouldn't do that! I was hoping that it would stay put. I'd like for the footer to be right below the main content table. It behaves properly in Netscape 8.1. In Netscape, no matter how large I make the window, the footer table doesn't move.

Does anyone have the answer to why my table is "floating" in Internet Explorer? I've searched high and low for the answer for the past 2 days and can't come up with an answer. Please help!

Here's the link to the site I'm working on:


Thank you kindly in advance.
 
PS: Also, in IE, the footer table causes scrolling no matter how HIGH my resolution. It always sits below the viewable area, so no matter how high my screen res is, I still have to scroll down to see find the footer table. Arrrghh. This is so annoying!!
 
beacuse u se the height to 100%

body {
background-image: url(../images/bg_blue.jpg);
margin-left: 0px;
margin-top: 0px;
margin-right: 0px;
margin-bottom: 0px;
margin:0px;
height:100%;


not sure of your layout but I would stick footer in the bottom row of your layout table.
All the best!
