I have just finished a small web site for a local church, which is at:

http://www.whitton-stmarys.org.uk
stylesheet at http://www.whitton-stmarys.org.uk/whitton.css

It all validates and looks fine in Firefox and Opera, but I have
noticed that in IE 6, the text of the main content is very slightly
indented where it is alongside the left-hand menu. Even if I increase
the margin-left of the content (say from the current 12em to 15em),
the indent is still there. It isn't a major problem and I don't
expect different browsers to show exactly the same results, but I am
puzzled as to how to solve it.

I would be grateful for any pointers.

It's the 3px jog bug.
