IE6 uses the same correct standards-based box model as Mozilla et al unless
quirks mode is triggered.
Now although your document is XHTML transitional which should make IE6 use
standards mode, you have an xml prolog (<?xml version="1.0"
encoding="iso-8859-1"?> ) which does trip it in to quirks mode. You don't
need the prolog, so just delete it.
