I take it you are using IE3? There is a well-known bug in this implementation, affecting all (?) block-level elements like <Hn>, <P>, etc., that will prevent you from achieving the desired effect. The bug is fixed in IE4b1, and NS4b5 has nearly got it right. The code you want is P { margin-top: 0; margin-bottom: 0 } The actual space separating paragraphs should equal the line-height specified for paragraphs. NS4b5 uses some other figure, though. If you really need to hack something together for IE3, try replacing all of your <P></P>'s with <DIV CLASS=P></P>'s. Then write .P { margin-top: 0; margin-bottom: 0 } __________________ Todd Fahrner mailto:fahrner@pobox.com http://www.verso.com/
