After noticing that these margins are not applied to the header element, I
realized that creation of a 1em header style solves the issue, but that
might not be optimal.

Still looking for a very solid fix....BUT WAIT...

Whoa.  Here's something interesting, To create the 1em header, I needed to
declare a base font size, and the BASE FONT SIZE solves this - in fact,
there is an instance in which there is not enough space separating a link
and surrounding text.

Thanks for looking at this Tony. I've been unexpectedly out of the office
since I pinged the list, so that's why I haven't replied.

Yeah, the base font size fixes the issue for me, although as you pointed
out, there's at least two situations where whitespace is being deleted --
and I think it's minor enough to be safely ignored.

Thanks for figuring this out. I was going slightly batty.

Does anyone care to explain to me why Firefox requires a base font size to
keep from adding whitespace to links and acronyms? Or is this a _ahem_
feature?
