<h1> header tags display differently in IE7 and Firefox

This is a simple one, but still rather frustrating.

If you use the <h1> tag, you'll notice that it display differently in different browsers. You might think it's just the font-size, but if you customize h1 in css, you'll find that the space above and below the text inside the <h1> tags is larger in Firefox than it is in IE7.

It's an easy, if unintuitive fix... specify the margins.

The Solution:

h1
{
font-size: large;
margin-top: 0;
margin-bottom: 1em;
}
