I'm developing this page:
http://www.colorado.edu/its/policies/policies5.html
Viewing on Firefox creates a weird style problem. To see it:
1. Click on Draft Policies
2. Click on Description for University E-mail as Official Correspondence
There is a gap between the second to last line and the last line of text.
Does anyone know how I can correct this problem??
This doesn't show up on Safari or Internet Explorer.
Thanks!
Rochelle

Please try Validating your code...
(this will require the inclusion of DocType and CharSet!)
Quite often this sort of thing occurs due to tags/elements not being closed properly... esp. in very compliant browsers such as MFF.
It may also be due to quirks/non-standard mode being implemented by defautl, or the difference of code (you code in strict, it reads it as transitional // you code it as xhtml, it reads it as html).
Onceyou ahve that done, you may find the issue has disappeared
(Hint: When workig through Validation errors, start at the top of the file and work down, as some reported errors are acaused by previous ones above!).

Sometimes life holds wonderful suprises - shame I sleep through them all.
