I'm getting this last result *only* in IE 8 and *only* when in so-called "standards mode." In other words, this is an IE 8 problem with any valid or unknown DOCTYPE. Without getting into issues of markup, I suggest using the following META tag in the <head> of your page: <meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=7"> I could not find a CSS solution. Sorry.
