First line in paragraph

[TSemmes]

Though I use CSS to add space before Heading 1, I am trying to get the first
line in a paragraph to line up with the top of the cell that it is in. I have
added this command to the style sheet:
h1:first-child {margin-top: 0;}
it seems to work in Firefox but not in Internet Explorer.
Are there any other work arounds, besides creating a seperate style for that
first lines?

Try p.first { margin-top:0; }

and then style the specific <p> tag.

The problem is that you will also have to adjust the bottom margin on the
<h1> tag.

oops I meant the first line in a table cell not paragraph. it seems like the
h1:first-line works in Internet Explorer but not for margins. For example I
tried
h1:first-line {margin-top:0; color: green}
The color of the first line in each table cell changed but not the margin.

IE's support for first-line is not precedent setting.... 8)
