legend and fieldset problem in IE

[thesheep]

fieldset { margin: 10px 0; padding: 0px; border: 1px solid #C2BF99; background-color: #E1E1D0; }

legend { font-size: 80%; color: black; padding: 0 0.5em; background-color: white; border: 1px solid #C2BF99; margin-left: 0.4em;}

This works fine in Firefox but in IE6 the background of the fieldset extends above it's top border to become level with the top of the legend box. What am I doing wrong? Thanks

A familiar problem... I know Suzy posted a really neat solution to the problem. If only I can find it now...
