float and spacing

@jeffmottMay 08.2003

If you view the attached page, you’ll notice that in NS7 and Opera7 the two lines touch, but in IE6 there is a gap that simply will not go away. Wondering if anyone knew why IE does this and how to make it stop.

😡 …. microsoft

Have you looked at this already (link below)? IE puts a mysterious 3px space for any text rendered alongside a float. AFAIK, there is no workaround for this.
