CSS FF <P> Quirk - help please

Hi,

If you go to here you will see that their is a gap at the top of the page. Basically, it only appears when viewing in FF, IE looks fine. I believe that it something to do with the way FF renders the <P> tag? maybe by default? It seems to be overlapping the top and bottom of the containing div.

CSS

/* Layout */



body {
	margin-left: 0px;
	margin-top: 0px;
	margin-right: 0px;
	margin-bottom: 0px;
	background-color: #efeade;
	background-image: url(../images/bg.jpg);
	background-position: left top;
	background-repeat: repeat-x;
}

#container {
width: 710px;
margin: 0 auto; /*** Centers the design ***/
min-height: 300px;
text-align: left; /*** Because we centered the text in body we have to move the text back to left aligning ***/
}
* html #container {
height: 300px; /*** IE doesn't support min-height, but instead it handles height as min-height so we need to hack the height ***/
}

}
#container #contentcontainer #content h3 {
	color: #CC9933;
}
#container #contentcontainer #content strong {
}

I could just set the CSS P top-margin/bottom-margin attribute to 0 but this will colapse all the paragraphs, so i’m a bit confused.

Thanks
