I don't know how serious a problem this is, but if the dimensions prevent it happening I am happy to provide them. In my scheme of things <p> has normal paragraph spacing, 'nrmltxtn' has zero spacing, and 'notetxtn' is a size smaller, also with zero line spacing. >Also, if you use first-child, it could be taken down to: > ><div class="pfm"> > <img src="Images/Nxxxxx.jpg"> > <p>Yanni Nxxxxx </p> > <p>Sally Riordan Scholarship, 2007- </p> ></div> Except that line 2 is smaller than line 1. In my scheme of things <p> has normal paragraph spacing, 'nrmltxtn' has zero spacing, and 'notetxtn' is a size smaller, also with zero line spacing. I could redefine <p> & <h4> for this class (provided I never want to use the normal values in it), but there is something to be said for having a standard set of fonts, and always knowing what I will get, rather than having <p> mean something different every time I use it. And, as others have pointed out, a few thousand bytes more or less is totally immaterial.
