Pretty much, though you can give an inline box a line-height which acts a lot like vertical padding. We often talk about the box model, but really there are *two* box models - one for block boxes and another for inline boxes. DIVs shouldn't be used for inline anyway - that's what SPANs are for. -- Ed Seedhouse __ css-discuss [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d IE7b2 testing hub -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/?page=IE7 List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/
