Try changing the Area names to Footer1 Footer2 Footer3.
yeah, the same area name calls the same block for that page, so if you change the names like made for space suggested it should work.
Thank you.
When i am home i gonna test it.

I always give each new area object a new variable name as well.
<?php $fc1 = new Area('Footer Col 1'); ...?>
<?php $fc2 = new Area('Footer Col 2'); ...?>
<?php $fc3 = new Area('Footer Col 3'); ...?>
This helps me keep organized code easier to understand.

Hey creatovisguru,
This is totally my personal opinion (so I'm not saying you're wrong), but to me I actually think the code is easier to understand when I use the same variable name for each area. Because to me, when I see different variable names I think that it means they will be used later on for some other purpose (otherwise why would they have different names?) -- so using the same variable name to me means "okay it's just a plain old concrete5 area, like everywhere else in my theme templates, so nothing I need to think about here".
I'm not trying to be argumentative -- I enjoy hearing different people's opinions on this kind of stuff (hope you do as well).

Yea as jordan said, I do the same thing, eg:
<?php $a = new Area('Footer Col 1'); ...?> <?php $a = new Area('Footer Col 2'); ...?> <?php $a = new Area('Footer Col 3'); ...?>
It worked.
