mushget Banned Posts: 408 Name: mushget Trades: 0 Talkupation:	I have a fixed background. <body background="images/blue_bar_background.jpg"> It looks fine in Firefox and works well with the rest of the images I have on the page, but I notice in IE it displays differently. In IE the background seems to start 5 or 6 pixels DOWN from where FF starts it at the top. Any advice?
