Footer flows footer blocks and footer message instead of stacking them

If you put a block in the footer, the block is concatenated with the footer message. If you put more than one block, each block is concatenated instead of putting each block on top of each other.

I put the following code from footing.tpl.php of the Garland theme into block-footer.tpl.php of the Marinelli theme and it corrected the problem.

<?php
// $Id: block.tpl.php,v 1.3 2007/08/07 08:39:36 goba Exp $
?>
<div id="block-<?php print $block->module .'-'. $block->delta; ?>" class="clear-block block block-<?php print $block->module ?>">

<?php if (!empty($block->subject)): ?>
  <h2><?php print $block->subject ?></h2>
<?php endif;?>

  <div class="content"><?php print $block->content ?></div>
</div>

I'm new to this so I haven't learned how to make a patch, yet.
