There is a bottom footer on this page which is completly hidden on browser view.
It can't be accessed in any way, since there are no scroolbars or whatever. In
IE it is shown correctly on bottom.

Reproducible: Always

Why do you think there aren't any scrollbars?

> <FRAME SRC="bottom-navi.htm" NAME="bottom" SCROLLING="NO" NORESIZE>

I assume you are the author?

(I think this one is invalid since I couldn't discover any try to remove the
padding/margin from the p element.)

Hello!

No I am not the author, just user of page. There are maybe scroolbars but they
don't include this last footer. If you resize page scroolbars scrool things
between header and footer (header=line with "homepage, rental center,
corporate...", footer="Orangle line at bottom with country selector, contact
us,..." which you probably also don't see now).

You should send the author of this page an e-mail, since he isn't using correct
HTML/CSS. Mozilla behavior is correct.

-> INVALID

To clarify: The page author's HTML/CSS is approximately 'correct', but they 
apparently haven't made any effort to remove the space that appears at the 
start of the frame. As the frame also doesn't have any scrollbars, you can't 
see the content, since it has scrolled off the bottom of the frame.

I know that IE has different default rules for margins and padding, and this 
presumably explains the differences.

[Apologies for the vagarity: I don't have a working Mozilla atm.]

This page is in Quirks mode and we want to be compatible in this case.
