Aligning text to the bottom of the page

[aversion]

If the page scrolls that won't keep the block at the bottom of the page in most browsers.

In modern browsers position: fixed will do it but IE stumbles here, though I think IE7 understands it.

I know this is a question much asked in web dev forums but I've never seen a satisfactory answer. If you want to support IE you could use javascript to keep the block in the desired position when the page is scrolled or there are CSS hacks that work somewhat. There's an example of a javascript way to do it here or a CSS way here.
