Quick Margin 0 help

Please take a look at my site: www.envoyforums.com

At the top you'll notice the big space. I know there are tags you put in the <body> tag to get rid of it but cant remember what they were exaclty. Everything I've tried has failed

Can anyone tell me what I need to do to get rid of the gap?

Thanks, mucho appreciated..o

If you are talking about the gap above the header, can you set the top margin to 0 in your stylesheet?

e.g.

body {
margin-top: 0;
}

(currently you have it set to 5px)

What browser are you viewing it in?

using the margin-top: 0 etc. it works fine in Safari, but still leaves an approx 8px gap in Firefox (im using a Mac... so may vary on PC).

Have you tried using a negative value?

e.g.
body{
margin: -8px 10px 10px 10px;
}

Fixed, turns out it was a VB thing.

Thanks for the help,
