That hack relies on the fact that the simple little mind of IE 6 7
‘thinks’ there is an element that wraps around the root element

This is not correct.
That is what I meant. if you know it is correct as in 'I know it's there and
why'. I guess I could have been clearer.

And, moment of discovery for me...when 10px of padding is added to

After I sent that previous message I put the html at the top of the
