User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; rv:1.7.3) Gecko/20040913 Firefox/0.10.1 Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; rv:1.7.3) Gecko/20040913 Firefox/0.10.1 I have read the W3C Recommendations, and none of them relate to changing the handling of the <br /> tag... When a document has an XHTML 1.0 Strict or XHTML 1.1 DTD Declaritive, Firefox (or more rather... Gecko) renders the page with a "larger" line-break rather than a simple break when it encounters a <br /> tag Page rendering goes back to "as expected" when I use a XHTML 1.0 Transitional DTD Declaritive Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: My code (with some classes and content removed for obvious reasons): <?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1"?> <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.1//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml11/DTD/xhtml11.dtd"> <!-- *snip!* --> <body> <div id="DocumentContainer"> <div id="DocumentTop"><img src="IMG/top-left.jpg" alt="" title="" id="DocumentTopImage" /></div> <div id="DocumentContent-Container"> <div class="DocumentContent" id="ContentOne"> <h1></h1> <h2></h2> <p></p> <p></p> <p></p> </div> </div> <div id="DocumentBot"> <div id="DocumentBotMenu"> <a href=""><img src="IMG/mnu-1-1.gif" alt="" title="" /></a><a href=""><img src="IMG/mnu-1-2.gif" alt="" title="" /></a><a href=""><img src="IMG/mnu-1-3.gif" alt="" title="" /></a><br /> <a href=""><img src="IMG/mnu-2-1.gif" alt="" title="" /></a><a href=""><img src="IMG/mnu-2-2.gif" alt="" title="" /></a><a href=""><img src="IMG/mnu-2-3.gif" alt="" title="" /></a> </div> </div> </div> </body> </html> Actual Results: Firefox renders the <br /> tag differently, causing spacing between the two image lines Expected Results: Have not have rendered any space between the lines

This is correct. The default vertical alignment of inline images is to the baseline of the text. See http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS21/visudet.html#propdef-vertical-align This is one of the quirks we apply in quirks mode. See http://www.mozilla.org/docs/web-developer/quirks/
