How it looks now:
<div id="footer" role="contentinfo">

    <ul id="footer-info">
        <li id="footer-info-lastmod"> … </li>
        <li id="footer-info-copyright"> … </li>
    </ul>
    <ul id="footer-places"> … </ul>
    <ul id="footer-icons" class="noprint"> … </ul>
    <div style="clear:both"></div>

</div>

How it should:
<footer id="footer" role="contentinfo">

    <ul id="footer-info">
        <li id="footer-info-lastmod"> … </li>
        <li id="footer-info-copyright"> … </li>
    </ul>
    <ul id="footer-places"> … </ul>
    <ul id="footer-icons" class="noprint"> … </ul>
    <div style="clear:both"></div>

</footer>

See its specification on https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Element/footer and http://www.w3schools.com/tags/tag_footer.asp
Comment 1 S. McCandlish 2014-05-18 06:52:29 UTC 
To degrade gracefully, wouldn't the footer have to be wrapped around the existing div, and the CSS arranged carefully so that the end user sees the same or nearly the same rendered effect, regardless of browser and settings?
