mr.maX Maniac (V) Mad Scientist From: Belgrade, Serbia Insane since: Sep 2000	posted 02-15-2002 17:43 MSIE has some bugs as far as margins are concerned and that's why you need those two additional parameters. For example, on my computer (IE6 / Windows XP), when I go to OSDN.COM web site (you have to type web address directly in the address bar, because problem sometimes won't appear after clicking on the link), I can see white space on the right side (right margin), even though LEFTMARGIN is set to zero value (I can show you a screenshot if you can't see the problem)...

<body margin-height="0" margin-top="0" margin-bottom="0" margin-right="0" margin-left="0">

Then if you want in your CSS (if you use it) you can put:
body{margin:0px;}

The first way is probably the best since NN4.7 has some trouble with CSS margin stuff.

Those parameters don't have hyphens and they look a little bit different:

<BODY LEFTMARGIN="0" RIGHTMARGIN="0" TOPMARGIN="0" BOTTOMMARGIN="0" MARGINWIDTH="0" MARGINHEIGHT="0">
