I am trying to figure out why there is an extra white space before a floating P.
i.e., <p style="float:right/left">
The other odd part is if I add "border:1px solid black" to the style, it
renders the box all the way to where it is supposed to be, but it still has
that white space.
I am using IE5 as something to compare with. It seems to make sense not to
have a gap on top. I don't think this is the expected behaviour, is it?
Sorry that this is a long snippet:

P tags, in the ua.css, have a top and bottom margin for "1em". Hence you
*should* be seeing that whitespace. If you don't want margins, set them to zero
using "margin: 0".
