Differences in stylesheet interpretation between IE and Netscape

Hi!

I have the following page in IE6 -
http://www.geocities.com/emmaruthuk/test/test3.htm . However, when
viewed in netscape 4.74, netscape 7.1 and Mozilla 1.6, the background
colour doesn't cover the whole page.

The link to the stylesheet is
http://www.geocities.com/emmaruthuk/test/sdl1.css

If anyone can suggest anything I'd be greatful.

Hi Emma!

Your CSS should look something like this if you would like to have the
background all blue:

body {
margin: 0;
height: 100%;
background-color: #a0c4e8;
color: #1D2F68;
}

Add 'padding: 0;' as well.

Thanks for the help - I figured out some of it by myself, but the
padding I hadn't got.
