Recently did some testing and this rendering error appeared in both Opera and WebKit, but failed to do with IE, Gecko and Amaya. After reading the spec regarding the box model I am pretty sure this is a bug.
The problem is the background colour for body is shown instead of the parent element, after further investigation it appears that the margin is added for the table but not taken into account with the surrounding div.
http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-CSS2/box.html is the document I was reading regarding margins.

Yeah, definitely see no reason why that space should be there from looking at the source.

I've been told this is the CSS 2.1 Spec regarding collapsing margins after talking it over with someone more enlightened, though I'm insure.

The referenced URL is inaccessible, and the spec links are very out of date. We are tracking modern WPT tests in this space, and should focus on those results.
