I have a problem with the footer in that it isn't displaying corretly.

2 lines of code in the plugin:
<div class="js-kit-comments" permalink=""></div>
<script src="js-kit.com/comments.js"></script>

This code displays a comment box. However the comment box is filling the entire page right down to the bottom, see example here:
www.gayuknews.com/Cornwall/cornwall-standing-council.html

If a comment is added the footer is budged down below all the modules on the right:
www.gayuknews.com/Your-News/michael-caus...iller-gets-life.html

If I remove all the moduiles on the right it looks OK. If I add the 2 lines of code to the bottom of an article it works fine (with the modules) but that defeats the points of the plugin!

Any help greatly appreciated.

additional info... for once it's fine in IE but wrong in Firefox and Chrome.

I can see the problem. The plugin adds the footer after the article has been rendered, which includes the "Next", etc. buttons if required. This means that it isn't the same as adding text to the bottom of an article exactly.

In the case of your site, the article is displayed in a table, but due to the way the template is rendered, the plugin can only add text after the table code.

I guess this is essentially a limitation of the plugin at the moment. I can look into it to see if there are any other options for adding the footer earlier, but I am not sure there are - not without fundamental redesign of the plugin, anyway.

Thanks for the very quick response.

I guess it's a limitation of the template also. I am going to try moving things about to see what happens.
