zero page margin in mozilla?

[Marita]

Hi,
I have a page (several) where the top margin doesn't appear to be working.
I have this in my code:

<style type="text/css">
<!--
body {
margin-left: 0px;
margin-top: 0px;
margin-right: 0px;
margin-bottom: 0px;
background-color: #CCB979;
background-image: url(images/back.gif);
background-repeat: repeat-x;
}
-->
</style>

and the page is http://www.emergentrealestate.com

Is my problem a margin error or the table placement?

Thanks in advance!
Marita

Looks just fine here. Mozilla browser.
Which other browsers have you tried?

What is it about the top margin (i.e. 'none') that you think is not
right? From here it looks like your background image is tucked tightly
against the top of the browser view port.
Isn't that what you want?

You need to set body margin /and/ padding to zero.
Different browsers have different defaults for their viewport treatment.

Additionally, sometimes it may be necessary to modify the HTML padding,
too (the BODY element is inside the HTML element, and both can have
styling).

Only Opera gives a padding (8px) to the body element. I've never heard
of a browser giving a padding to the HTML element.
