Hi Eoin,
I modified your CSS as follows:
..wrapper li
{
border:1px solid red;
padding:0px;
margin:0px;
}
..wrapper li a
{
display:block;
border:1px solid blue;
text-decoration:none;
color:black;
font-size:.7em;
padding:0;
margin:0;
height:1em;
}
This gets you _pretty_ close. As of the present, it's impossible to get
micro-typography done to any satisfying standard - the dilema is that if
you want real control over metrics you have to make the object a block
level box, but then your text metrics become ambiguous, especially in
their relation to the surrounding box.
As it stands, the modifications I made above get rid of virtually
everything except the line-height. But as you may or may not discover,
ems are pretty entropic!
Regards,
Barney
