http://www.webtestinglab.com/semantra/company.php

There is 100px difference between firefox and IE6, surprisingly enough, ie6 is doing it right and FF has it wrong. It's exactly 200px from the header which containg the global nav/searchbar/logo...here is the CSS

CODE

/************Secondary Page Layout************/
#secondary-wrapper{
    background-color:#fff;
    background-image:url(images/semantra-secondary-bg.jpg);
    background-position:top;
    background-repeat:no-repeat;
    background-color:#e6e7e9;
    border:1px solid #717073;
    width:1023px;
    margin:0 auto;    
}
#secondary-main-content{
    width:820px;
    margin:200px 0px 9px 65px;
  }
    #secondary-menu{
      width:135px;
      float:left;
      border-right:1px solid #C2C2C5;
      font-size:11px;
    }
    #secondary-menu ul{
      margin:24px 0px;
      padding:0px;
      list-style-type:none;
    }
    #secondary-menu ul li{
    }
    #secondary-menu ul li a{
      display:block;
      width:75px;
      height:auto;
      padding:12px 0px;
      color: #717073;
      text-decoration:none;
      text-align:right;
    }
    #secondary-menu ul li a:link, #secondary-menu ul li a:visited{
      color: #717073;
    }
    #secondary-menu ul li a:hover, #secondary-menu ul li a:active{
      color: #58A618;
    }
    #secondary-content{
      width:500px;
      margin:0px 65px 0px 60px;
      float:right;
    }
    #secondary-content h1{
      font-size:16px;
      font-weight:normal;
      color:#58A618;
      margin-top: 0px;
    }
    #secondary-content p{
      font-size:11px;
      color:#717073;
    }
    #secondary-content a{
      color:#717073;
    }
    #secondary-footer{
      clear:both;
      padding:0;
      margin:0;
      background-image:url(images/semantra-secondary-foot.jpg);
      background-position:bottom;
      background-repeat:no-repeat;
      background-color:#e6e7e9;
    }
/*i did this to go inside the main-content and the other goes on the outside*/
  #secondary-clear-footer{
    clear:both;
  }

Here is the html

CODE

<div id="secondary-wrapper">
  <?php include("inc-header.php") ?>
  <div id="secondary-main-content">
    <div id="secondary-menu">
      <ul>

        <li><a href="#">Fact Sheet</a></li>
        <li><a href="#">Leadership</a></li>
        <li><a href="#">Careers</a></li>
      </ul>
    </div>
  <div id="secondary-content">
