My IE7 and IE6 are both displaying only 20 px between the inside of
the green border at the top and the outside of the top black border of
the first contained div.
However FF displays 30 px.
They all display 30 px at the corresponding bottom location.
I would love an explanation that makes any sort of sense.

Yeah, I played with it quite a bit trying to find an "elegant" workaround,
but it's just like Ben C. said: a bug. I'd try something like dorayme
suggested. Conditional Comments are usually a decent fix.


Thanks Ben and N. I was just trying to get a handle on the logic of the
situation but am "happy" now that the groups heavyweights have confirmed
that it is just a bug and there is nothing specific to be learned from the
example.
IEx seems to be buggy in various ways when a padding butts up against a
margin.
So far my tests have indicated that with a strict doctype, IE6 and IE7 seem
to be consistent in (mis)behaving in similar ways.
