Iframe background

[goangus]

Hello everyone,
I have a question which is purely down to a small aesthetic issue but its a really bugging me! I have an iframe, code below:
HTML

HTML: Select all

<iframe id="blockrandom"
    name="iframe"
    src="http://news.bbc.co.uk/text_only.stm"
    width="100%"
    height="300"
    scrolling="auto"
    align="top"
    frameborder="0"
    class="wrapper">
    This option will not work correctly. 
        Unfortunately, your browser does not 
        support Inline Frames
</iframe>

CSS

HTML: Select all

#blockrandom {
    padding: 4px;
    max-width: 520px;
    min-width: 520px;
    width: 528px !important;
    margin: 2px 2px 0px 4px;
    background: #A6262A;
    border: 1px solid #FFF;
}

This is perfect in all browsers except internet explorer. Its supposed to have 4px redborder (hence padding) with a 1px white outline (border). IE doesn't read the background color for the iframe so I just get a 5px white border. Is there a way around this or am I just being an idiot?
Many thanks for any help
