problem making div width actually = 100%

TheMSsForum.com: The Microsoft Software Forum

I have an asp page similar to the below:

<body>
<div style="position:absolute;top:0px;left:0px;filter:...gradient...;width:100%;margin-right:0px;>
stuff here
</div>
</body>

I want the div to stretch all the way across the browser window, and I don't want to see background color to
the right of it but I do
... it looks like i have the margin-right set to 25px when I don't.

Any ideas?

Thanks!

Yep - that's IE for you. Look at it in FF or Moz. IE reserves space for a
scrollbar until you kick it in the head. Try making the width 100.1% and
see what happens.
