Actually, I did the same kind of thing (can't post a problem and not  
keep working on it!), but used margins instead, since IE gets so pissy  
about stuff like that. I checked the site in Browsercam, and most  
browsers look like I want them to. IE6 looks like it made the image  
smaller, but that's no big deal. Browsercam makes such good money off  
of people because of lack of cross-browser compatibility.

Thank you!
