Set the bottom margin on H1 to 0.
Browsers add margins to block level elements except DIV. If they didn't do that headings, paragraphs and so on wouldn't stand out on an unstyled page. All the text would run together. Browsers do this differently though, so it's a good idea to always control margins if this matters. If you control the margins you don't need to worry about the browser you didn't check with. You may also want to set the top margin of FORM to 0. Some browsers add a margin there, or at least they used to do so. |
