IE and Firefox render absolute positioning differently?
Hello. My website is almost complete, but IE and Firefox seem to render absolute positioning differently, below are the urls to a couple of screenshots. You'll see that in Firefox (the first image), the text lines up on the background, but on IE (the second image), it doesn't.

The page code in question is located at http://xenvault.mygamesonline.org/xenindex.php
I hope that's legal as I'm not advertising, this is a temporary, closed page.
Can anyone tell me how to fix this issue? Thanks so much.

IE and Firefox have different default paddings and margins for . Try putting this in your CSS
body {
margin:0;
padding:0;
}
How's that?

No difference in either browser, but thanks for the suggestion. I just might do that, sitesupport.

They do display some tags and content slightly different, you may want to just make you background bigger so it works for both of them.
