Yes, it's because you have set 'height:20px'.

Mid-air! But what I was going to say was...
This is the correct behaviour. The default value for the CSS2 overflow
property is 'visible', indicating that 'content is not clipped, i.e., it may be
rendered outside the block box.' (CSS2 11.1)
IE incorrectly grows the height of the containing DIV to contain the text.
Mozilla allows the text to spill out.
Closing as INVALID.
