Your 2 cents are understood, but the reason for the choice is to follow the typographic convention of 1.5, where the height of the line is 1.5 times the height of the text. You could change the line height to 20 px in your custom stylesheet, but then you wouldn't be able to impress the typography nerds with your attention to their conventions. -- -- Christian Montoya christianmontoya.net --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Blueprint CSS" group.
