IE5 borders

[David Walker]

Can someone please confirm my suspicion that IE5 on Windows is including
borders in the dimensions of a block object? The block in question has the
following css:

div.headerbox
{
position: relative;
left: 169px;
height: 70px;
margin: 5px;
margin-top: 0px;
width: 640px;
color:#99ffff;
background-color: #6699cc;
background-image: url(images/site/logotop.png);
background-position: top right;
background-repeat: no-repeat;
border: 2px solid #003399;
cursor: default;
z-index: 2;
}

and works fine in IE6, Mozilla 1.3, Opera 7.11, but is 4px too short in IE5.

Any ideas why its doing this wrong?
Thanks

David

OK, I give up. I've moved to separate style sheets for different browsers.
Its working OK now so it'll have to do.
Thanks
