Hi David-- It appears to be connected to your font-variant:small-caps declaration. If I had to guess, I would suppose Windows doesn't have a way to translate the non-breaking space into some lower-case/lower-height version of itself, so it doesn't translate the space into anything, but leaves it the same height as a font-variant:normal character. This obviously pushes the height of the box to make room for the "taller" character. I couldn't find a work-around beyond specifying the line-height in pixels as you'd done. Hope it helps. --Bill -- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ TheHolierGrail.com | MacNimble.com | Cyber-Sandbox.com | Anytowne.com Bill Brown, Web Developer - "From dot concept to dot com since 1999" "The intuitive mind is a sacred gift and the rational mind is a faithful servant.
