padding, width and height

I am not sure why this is doing so, but for some reason, the padding on
this div I have, pushes this area too wide.
Have a look at the blue copyright note at the bottom:

Why is it doing this? Do I need to subtract the padding from the width?


The tag looks like this:
#copynote
{
height:20px;
width:750px;
background:#036;
font-size:9px;
color:#FFF;
padding:4px 4px 0px 10px;
}

From the spec:

"The box width is given by the sum of the left and right margins,
border, and padding, and the content width."

What you expect is the behaviour of old browsers or browsers running in
qirks mode. What you see is the result in standards-compliant browsers.

Something different: Why are you using heading elements for the contact
informations?

Micha,

What you expect is the behaviour of old browsers or browsers running in

So what do I need to do?

Something different: Why are you using heading elements for the contact
informations?
I did not think I was?

Thank you for your help!
