Hi,

I've recently built a website that has to be viewed in both IE and Firfox etc however I've used the :

to force the site to the top left corner in IE but this doesn't seem to do the same effect in Firefox...What will?

The annoying border still remains!

Thanks
Spence

Hi Spencer_P,

You probably also need 'marginleft' and 'margintop' as Firefox uses the same rendering engine as Netscape. Personally I would just use a stylesheet:

body {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
}

As dreamcatcher wrote, using stylesheets is the preferred method of handling this in Gecko-based browsers. If you try to validate your code, you'll notice that "topmargin", "leftmargin", "margintop" and "marginleft" are all illegal attributes of the BODY tag ... not part of the spec. Stick to stylesheets if you want consistency.
