Simple Margin Issue in IE

In Opera and FF my site looks fine, and im positive that its an issue with my
title div:
#title {
margin-top: 15px;
}

In IE its not functioning correctly (of course...) it puts a 15 pixel gap between the Title div and the right and left divs. Is there an alternative or better way of doing this?

Just a suggestion, but maybe try to take out the "<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"> . I've heard it makes IE6 go into quirks mode (broken box model). I don't know if thats your problem or not, just a suggestion.

That won't force IE 6 into quirks mode. Putting an XML declaration (or anything else for that matter, includng white space) above the DOCTYPE will.

Also, your #content is 800px wide, as is your #left DIV. Try dropping that to 600px and see what happens (I'm busy right now otherwise I'd test it for myself).

Yes, you are right, I forgot about that part, but I guess that is obviously an important part...My apologies.
