width="100%" - not working only in ie6.0 - help needed

[Mahendra]

hello everyone

i am using width="100%" for making my page span the entire browser

its works perfect in opera 7 and netscape 7

but it does not work that fine in ie 6 - i get a blank space of about 10 px or so on the right side and when i refresh it , then it works properly

actually if i just double click on the page and run it, then it works fine in ie 6 - but when i upload it to my server and access it, then i get this problem

try this page in ie 6 and also in other browsers - then you will know the exact problem

thanks for looking in here

hope to solve this problem soon - ofcourse with all your help

thanks again

have a nice day

I don't see any problems; there's no gap on the right side (I'm using IE6/Windows 2000 and Mozilla 1.2/Windows 2000). Can you be more specific?

Do you have Service pack 1 for IE6?

Also, try adding this to your stylesheet:

body {
  margin: 0px;
}

no gap here, I'm using IE 6 SP1

No gap here either with IE 6 and ME at 600 x 800.
