there is no band on Fx 1.5 nor in IE 6

maybe post a screenshot? highlighting where?

thanks for your prompt reply. i have attached a screenshot showing exactly where the problem lies. it becomes more obvious when the monitor is brightened. i use I.E. 7.0.5730.11

if you take a look at the screen shot I provided you will see that your "strip" is a table cell. there are 2 cell's in that line, the other is what contains your search information on the left... you would need to reword the way your layout is to the strip to disappear. I didnt notice that before because to me it just looks like you applied some margins to the element to obtain some whitespace to make the content more noticable.
