Trouble with Header Margin

All,

I'm having trouble eliminating the white band above the header on my personal page. I'm using the code Nick describes. ''' header { float: left; margin: 0 0 30px 0; padding: 5px 0 0 0; width: 100%; } '''

The band still appears. I have nobody else to ask. Could somebody help me?

Thanks, Patrick Ryan

Try 

body {
    top: 0px;
}

Usually a CSS Reset would fix this issue, though I don't even know why it's standard. Hope this helps.
