text won't show up in IE until window is repainted

I'm really stuck with this and would appreciate any help.

http://www.cs.man.ac.uk/~daf/i-p-c-s.../history_1.php is one of a
series of really simple pages (a block of text, an image, and two
links at the bottom). It's a valid page and appears fine in all my
browsers, except in IE. With IE (IE6 under XP) the text is invisible
until the window is repainted by resizing, or moving another page in
front of it and then behind.

Ah, thank you very much! I had googled for many things, but not that
particular combo. ;->. Adding line-height seems to have fixed
it.
