another problem. background wider than it should be

Hi! /*Excuses for my amateur questions.*/

I have another problem. I am working on a template and my background is a little wider than it should be at the bottom.
Here you can see how it looks

And here is my source:

<style type="text/css">
html,body
{
margin:0.5% 0.5% 0.5% 0.5%;
padding:0;
display:inline-block;
}

body
{
font: 76% arial,sans-serif;
}

div#header h1
{
height:80px;
line-height:80px;
margin-bottom:0.5%;
padding-left:10px;
background-color:#ff9999;
}

div#container
{
width:100%;
}

div#content
{
float:left;
margin-bottom:0.5%;
background-color:#00ccff;
}

div#news
{
float:left;
width:25%;
margin-left:-25%;
background:#0099cc;
}

div#footer
{
clear:left;
margin-top:0.5%;
background-color:#ba3f3f;
}
</style>
</head>
<body onload="Caller();">
<div id="container">
<div id="header"><h1>Header</h1></div>
<div id="content">
<img src="images/1.jpg" alt="" id="image_1" />
</div>
<div id="news">
<p><strong>3) More stuff here.</strong> very text make long silly make text very very text make long filler very make column make silly column fill silly column long make silly filler column filler silly long long column fill silly column very </p>
</div>
<div id="footer"><p>Here it goes the footer</p></div>
</div>
</body>
</html>

I've tried placing the view:inline-block or only view:inline in all possible divs, but it didn't work. I also don't want to use the max-heigth selector because I need this to work in both Firefox and IE.
Does anyone have a suggestion?

Regards,
Valentin

I removed all the margin specifications + added
*{ margin:0px 0px 0px 0px
}

and it looks as it should
