Miriam, I /guess/ it may have had to do with margin collapsing. However, 
it is going to take someone with a lot more understanding than me to 
confirm that; and, if it is correct, to explain it. I regret I am not 
technically oriented, and mostly work(if you can call it that) by trial 
and error. Perhaps someone who really knows there stuff will help us 
out. In the meantime, these articles deals what may be going on(?):
