Background color of css #page not showing in IE

My site works great on all browsers, except I’m have two issues with IE. First; it seems IE is not pulling the page background color from the following code within my stylesheet. If I could get the background color to pull in IE from this, I think things would be looking a lot better.

#page {
	width:900px;
	margin:0 auto;
	font-size:0.7em;
        border-top: medium double rgb(105,105,105);
        border-right: medium double rgb(105,105,105);
        border-left: medium double rgb(105,105,105);
	background:#2e2e2e url(https://www.jacobimages.com/home/images/header-bg2.png)no-repeat 0 0;
	padding: 15px 25px 20px 25px;
	}

The second is the png transparency issue in IE6. Any solutions has to what the best way to fix this might be?

Any insight would be great. Thanks!
