Padding/Margin Playing Havoc with IE7 - Why?

I am putting together a page where I am using margin/padding to offset a list. It looks fine in Opera & Firefox, but it's playing havoc in IE7. Unfortunately I lack the knowledge and/or experience to figure out how to fix it. The page can be seen HERE.

The problem seems to be on line 161 (ul li {margin-right: 40px;}). It's my best guess, because of the margin, it throws off my "mid3" <div> and "right" <div> and I have no clue as to how to fix this.

If any of the experts here would be so kind as to suggest what I did wrong and how I can fix it, I would greatly appreciate it.

Many thanks

Narrow the width of #mid1 by 4px to 434, and everything lines up. Of course, you need to use conditional comments to target IE. IE6 is messed up the same way.

I have to tell you, you are going at that layout the hard way using long narrow images like that for the box. You'll have trouble if the content needs to stretch beyond the length of your graphic.

I would be better to take a horizontal 'slice' of the box graphic, the width of the box plus a couple of pixels of the blue, and tile that as a background of a div holding your content. Then you put the top and bottom rounded sections on. Your page will then stretch as needed.
