Thanks for this. I used this to fix the gap between the image and the
stripe at the bottom in IE. Can you explain what has happened here?
There was obviously some inheritance issue that I'm not seeing; but
I'd like to understand.
In the meantime, as suggested by a few others, I have used absolute
positioning as others have suggested to solve the problem.
Thanks again for looking into this; I greatly appreciate not only the
opportunity to solve the issues, but also to learn!
Regards,
David
