IE6 gap in absolute div

[cg9com]

ive prepared a demo here (http://cg9com.web1000.com/demo.html).
notice the gap under the white div? its supposed to be 0px, no space.
am i doing something wrong?
moz. and opera view it fine, ie6 no go.

<edit>just viewed @ work with ie5, looks fine, does anyone else even see a gap????</edit>

It looks exactly the same for me in both Moz 1.21 and IE 6.

k...n' hoping ya noticed where the purple just a rrow® was pointin' down too??? thattts the '1px' black /me was just a talkin'® 'bout...

[Roy Sinclair]

Now that justame described what you were talking about I can see it in IE 6 while Moz doesn't have it. I put a border around your div and found that it appears that IE doesn't understand bottom: 0px; properly.

[cg9com]

@#$@#**@$#@#
geesh that thing doesnt understand ANYTHING

[cg9com]

thanks justame, i didnt see it before, the gap on my comp. was bigger
thanks Roy also.

pop quiz:
How do you cope with a technologically debilitating browser such as IE, when literally over half of all internet users use it?????

grrrr, ill show a picture as well, im going home now will post again soon

Yes please. I'm curious and don't have IE6. :)

What happens if you put it in Quirks Mode?

[cg9com]

meo...
just a yup® lol...

[cg9com]

hey now, that one pixel is important :thumbsup:
besides its supposed to be NO pixels under it, thats what moz and opera do ...
justame, it didnt work for me? :(
i guess i just cant do it as of now ...

[meow]

lol! It's just that I've been stalking this thread waiting for this Mega Terrible IE6 bug to be revealed. :D :o

I didn't realize it was that little line that I see in IE5 too. BTW if I resize the window it kinda comes and goes. At some sizes it's there and then it's gone again. :(

[cg9com]

hmm, my ie5 showed it ok ... i never resized or anything.
ie6 just wont push it down ...
