Re: CSS bug on post.php
I'm almost certain that's a result of the notorius Firefox rounding error (doesn't happen in IE/Opera). Not sure there's a lot we can do about it though. Am I right Paul?

Re: CSS bug on post.php
I can probably improve it but it can't be eliminated because it's a problem with the Gecko rendering engine. The only way to eliminate it alltogether would be
1. Set all font sizes to pixels
2. Remove all scrolling boxes
3. Ban posting of images and images in sigs
4. Set all line-height to normal
5 Ban smilies
Or. use tables.
Re: CSS bug on post.php
ooh ooh. tables.
thanks guys.
Re: CSS bug on post.php
Fixed (hopefully). The trick is to put a space between the posts in the review section just like in a topic thread. That way the rounding error is shifted to the space i.e. the occasional space will be 5px instead of 6px but it is not noticeable unless you view the screen through a magnifying glass. It actually looks better that way anyway.

Re: CSS bug on post.php
Is this the same thing as the 1+ pixel spacing between occasional lines of text in firfox? I mean the roudning bug in firefox.

Yes
