Problems with IE8 CSS display across various Windows machines

My website is displaying differently on various machines that have the same setup...

I've tested the site on 6 different machines, all running IE8 (8.0.7600) on Windows 7, and I'm getting two different renderings of the site in Internet Explorer. Some machines add about a 10px margin at the top of the page, shifting the layout down, while others do not.

All the machines are identical in specifications, operating system, and IE version, and they are all set to run in the same combination of IE8 browser mode and standards mode.

Has anyone else encountered this issue before? It seems illogical for the site to display differently on machines with the same configuration.

Answer №1

body {padding-top: 0;}

The problem was solved by including a fix in an IE8 conditional style sheet. It's strange how the rendering could be different within the same browser, but thank you for the assistance everyone.
