Have you considered that this is an artifact of your own particular
environment? I ran your sample on IE5.5 on W2K -- it doesn't work at
all on Moz, and I didn't have time to fix that :-) -- and didn't see
any of the phantom border problems you describe.

I've read of similar graphic issues involving particular video cards
and drivers, so it might be worth testing on a few different systems
if you haven't already.

Yes, I've done this in the past, but never tested it on IE, so it
probably wouldn't help. :-)

Has anyone besides you confirmed this display issue?
