@David_HarrisonFeb 27.2005 — You've become a victem to the 3px padding bug that IE has. IE will randomly add 3px of space between text and the side of the containing element when it is floated next to another element. How random.

Maybe the Original Poster was feeling discouraged and thought s/he was doing something wrong. Drat! I hope the post stays; I found it very useful, along with the answers!

The 3px problem hasn't come up often in the forums (that I've seen) so maybe it'd be a good thing if it stayed so that people could find it more easily via the search feature. And now, some keyword spam. ?
