Unwanted Spacing Below Photographs — Only on Firefox

    Hi there,

    A weird question for everyone. On my blog (buffalostoryproject.com), whenever I have a full-sized photograph, the text below the photograph displays funny on Firefox (and not on Safari). To explain: I place a single space between all paragraphs of text. But in Firefox, this space fails to show up between the first two paragraphs of text that follow a full-sized photograph. You can see this post for an example:

    Below all full-sized photographs, the spacing between text paragraphs is different from in the rest of the post. Could anyone explain why this is happening, and if there’s anything I can do to rectify it? I guess it might be a browser issue, but I thought I’d check.

    Thank you!!!

    The problem is caused by using a br tag instead of a p tag. The latter will add a bottom margin causing the space below but not a top one. Try editing the post in the HTML view, removing the br and enclosing the paragraph in p tags as shown below:
