Question : IE6 padding and width issue

HI,

Currently trying to get IE6 to display thing correctly, it seems to be taking the width or height of an item on the screen and displaying it at the values set in CSS without taking into account the padding set on that item. For example:

height: 160
width: 207
padding: 6, 8, 8, 8

FF is rendering this item with the follwing dimensions:

height: 174
width:223

IE is rendering it at

width:207
height:160

which seems to be an opposite interpretation  of the rules.

Thanks for your help
Colin

Answer : IE6 padding and width issue

Actually, padding goes inside the box, and margin goes outside the box, so, if you're getting a 160 by 207 box, then it's doing the right thing. If FF is displaying a larger box, then something is going wrong in FF.
