Markup-flaw... <div id="rightcol"> <h1><!-- a start-tag... ...with no end tag --> <h1>Main content header</h1> <h1>Introduction</h1> <p>rambling</p> </div> ...where the lonely <h1> will enclose both following <h1> and the paragraph. Browsers 'error-recovery' for 'text/html' creates the differences you see. *Never trust html-browsers* :-) Just get rid of that <h1> start-tag and it will turn out fine. regards Georg -- http://www.gunlaug.no ______________________________________________________________________ css-discuss [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d IE7b2 testing hub -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/?page=IE7 List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/
