Row height differences in IE and FF

Super Nick · July 17th, 2006, 01:24 PM

Hello-

I have a very basic question that I can't seem to find an answer to. Can anyone take a look at this site and tell me why the rows are taller in Firefox than in IE? They seem to refuse to allow me to set the height when I'm using FF. Please only comment on that problem, I know that there are better ways to do a lot of things using CSS, I'm just figuring them out as I go.

Thanks for any help!

It is the paragraph tag.

Remove that and it should be good to go.

fixed:
