Trouble with height style attribute and IE

Axel Siebenwirth

Hi,

its easily explained. I am using a div to draw a line and its supposed
to be 1px in height. Firefox does it... IE not... But why? I have
already set border, margin and padding to 0px but still its way too thick.

Can somebody explain this to me maybe and help me find a fix for it, please.
<html>
<head>
<title>Inkbox</title>
</head>
<body>
<div
style="position:absolute;background-color:black;left:0px;top:100px;width:300px;height: 1px;border-width:0px;margin:0px;padding:0px;"></div>
</body>
</html>

Look below you'll see the font I added to your div tag. Setting the
font face to 1 point and the line height to 1 point should fix it even
though you have no text in the box.

<div
style="position:absolute;backg*round-color:black;left:0px;top*:100px;width:300px;height :1px;*border-width:0px;margin:0px;pa*dding:0px;
font:1pt/1pt arial,sans serif;"></div>
