Thanks.  Would that matter even though I'm not using pt
sizes?  I'm using traditional font tags.  Up in the browser
toolbar, I can change text sizes (from "medium") to other
sizes, and the gap is STILL there, although barely noticeable
at "larger" and "largest".

Currently, this is not happening on ANY of my other webpages
(and they all have mixed font tags), but it has happened in
the past.  Those pages were either removed (products sold),
or I just got fed up with it and completely removed the
messed up text!  ;-)

Clint;
I messed with it a bit, and when I got up to size 4 for the
top line, and
size 3 for the bottom portion, the gap disappeared.  Maybe it
has something
to do with the browser trying to space the text according to
"pitch" at such
small text sizes. It reads the top line, then spaces the
second line near
the top of the "pitch" spacing, but places the last line at
the bottom of
the spacing at something like pitch 12 which creates the
extra gap. You
might not notice it in the rest of the page because your text
is either the
same size in those areas, or separated by paragraph tags.
(Did that make any
sense??)
Don't know if that is exactly why from a technical term, but
it is a hunch,
since it is only IE that does this.
