Hi ... http://grubstreet.ca pages appear double or 1.5 spaced in Firefox 1.5+ and Netscape 8+, but not IE5+. Have tried vertical spacing, padding, et cetera changes, to no avail. Any ideas or suggestions, please pm me. Thanks. drgeorgep

Did you get this working? I'm seeing the same spacing in both FF2+ and IE6.

There's more space around some of the text at the bottom of the page. Is that what you meant? The main content though looks like it has the same spacing to me.

Hi ... thanks for your reply. No, I didn't get it working. Actually, seems worse, and getting worse over the last 2 or so week. I rebuilt the page, today, checking, closely, at each stage, but nada. Do you think it's something my browser? What a pain. Thanks. Take care. drgeorgep

I know this isn't web review, but the header looks really blurry.. Try margin and width. Also I notice that when browsing over links in IE5 it distorted and changes the page size.

There's a lot more to worry about then spacing on that website. =\

It's far too cramped, the color scheme used is near borderline awful..

I'm still not seeing any problem with the way the text is displaying. I see it the same in both Firefox and IE. Could you give me an exact URL and the specific text you see that's being double spaced in Firefox and single spaced in IE.

I do have to agree with everyone else that there are a lot of things on the site that need improvement. I find it hard to navigate and it's not consistent from page to page. And it does look like you're trying to cram everything you can into every little space.

White space, the empty space around text and images is a very important part of design.

If you can get me a URL and let me know the specific text that's not displaying properly I will take a look.

In FireFox, this is the most useful web dev plugin I've found. You can right-click an element on the page, like the text that isn't rendering properly, and see where it fits into the dom tree, and also see all the css being applied. There's a similar plugin for IE, although I don't know how far back it goes.

I don't see a problem in FF 2, but I haven't looked in IE ... I only have 7 here. So I don't have any specific advice, except that FireBug might do what you're looking for.
