Can you post some screenshots on a web-server somewhere ?
I can't reproduce this with Netscape 4.78.

Can you try this again in Netscape, but with Netscape configured to ignore the cascading stylesheet, and see if the problem persists. Ta.

OK. As far as I know, there's nothing wrong with the stylesheets from a standards point of view, so this is probably a bug with Netscape's handling of stylesheets. Would you be able to spend some time commenting out sections of the stylesheets to see if you can narrow down whatever it is that's causing the problem for you?

The part of the stylesheet at fault is:
BODY P {
margin: .6em 0;
line-height: 1.2;
}
Removing either one of margin: or line-height fixes the problem.
Commenting the entry out entirely doesn't seem to lose us anything, so
that may be the way to go.

State Changed From-To: feedback->open Back to us to decide what to do with this now (see my followup). State Changed From-To: open->closed I committed a workaround to the stylesheet which should resolve this. This change will be on the website within 24 hours. |
