Thanks again Mike.  I needed to change DOCTYPE tags in order to make
it work appropriately.

  Thanks Mike.  You definitely provided a solution that should work.
  But the following code works if I modify your test page, but not in my
  page.  It moves to the left, but not up.  Anyone have ideas how to
  debug why IE7 is ignoring the top margin?

  $.blockUI.defaults.elementMessageCSS = $.extend({},
  $.blockUI.defaults.elementMessageCSS);
  $.extend($.blockUI.defaults.elementMessageCSS, { margin: '-125px 0 0
  -125px' });
  $('#test').block(Loading, please wait...);

 Can you post a link?

I can't, it's an internal company app. I am going to try and isolate
it today.  If I can reproduce it in a static page, I will post it.
Thanks,

  This shows the test centered in the div.  I really need to get it
  placed at the top.

   $('#test').block(Loading, please wait...);

  I tried overriding several defaults, but did not have any luck.

  Thanks in advance,
