Because I'm a sucky hack at CSS... hope?→[More:]
I downloaded a freebie css template & am redesigning a site. Looks fabu in FF v2.0, not so much in IE v6. Why, why, WHY?!?!?!

I don't want to hog space with the css/html in here so if you want to have a look I'll send them along.

What's wrong in the IE screenshot? Font looks a little bigger is all I can tell.

That's pretty much it. so it expands the red linky lines on the right to two lines. Which bugs my picky eyeballs. Should I just live with it?

Are the red linky lines in an unordered list?

You could try to change the font-size property on IE only, but line wrapping will always be a issue on somebody's browser unless they are 'real' bullet items.

Reset CSS to account for the differences between the built-in CSS defaults of Firefox and Internet Explorer.

Sane CSS Sizes for minimizing font sizes on different browsers.
