Chris, This is the correct behaviour for CSS 2.1 [1] There's an example on that page that illustrates this issue - the image is tiled along the axis, nothing more. I've also just noticed that the 'Big M' (sorry Eric! :) )addressed this a few days ago [2], too...

If you add a top padding of 30px to the #wrapper container, and remove the top margin on #page, you'll see the issue resolved. (Alternatively, you *could* add a top padding of 1px to the #wrapper container, and adjust the top margin on #page as required!)
