Background problem in IE

How come the background doesn't show up in IE while it does in Firefox, Opera etc?

The background to what? The page looks pretty much the same in IE and Firefox except that IE doesn't handle the right hand side evenly and looses the shading effect.

IE's png support is still poor.

The shading effect is the background.

The shading effect is the background.

It shows, at the very top. The reason it doesn't show the rest of the way down the page is probably related to the reason the right hand edge of the page is all jagged. That may be happening because your XML prologue causes IE to ignore your DOCTYPE and revert to quirks mode.

I'll try removing the XML tag. Thanks.

Cool, that did the trick. Thanks!
