reformatting: wanted line-hight

[tscamera]

and again, something i don't get:

i do have two 8pt lines as, let's say pagenumbers and footers.
but the space between them is to much.
i would like to have them closer.

html is:
<div class="s3">
<p class="calibre2"><span class="none10">123</span></p>
</div>

<div class="s3">
<p class="calibre2"><span class="none10">FOOTER</span></p>
</div>

css is:
.s3 {
border-bottom: 0;
border-top: 0;
display: block;
font-style: italic;
margin-bottom: 0;
margin-top: 0;
padding-bottom: 0;
padding-left: 0;
padding-right: 0;
padding-top: 0;
text-align: right;
text-indent: 1.5em
}
_
.calibre2 {
border-bottom: 0;
border-top: 0;
display: block;
margin-bottom: 0;
margin-left: 0;
margin-right: 0;
margin-top: 0;
padding-bottom: 0;
padding-top: 0;
text-indent: 1.5em
}
_
.none10 {
font-size: 0.48387em;
font-style: normal;
font-variant: normal;
font-weight: normal;
text-decoration: none
}
.s3 and .none 10 -- is used in other formatted lines, so i can't (won't) change them.
if i look at the cursor, placed in the lines, the cursor has a normal, means 12pt hight.

any clues?

Try
<div class="s3">
<p class="none10">123</p>
</div>

<div class="s3">
<p class="none10">FOOTER</p>
</div>
The line height is given by the <p> font-size; the <span> won't affect it.

but it doesn't make any difference!

i checked both ways, on:
calibre viewer - it's the same look like in sigil, space between the lines
sony library viewer and the reader device - the space is gone!

miracle!!!

but i discovered something strange, too:
let's say i have html code like this:

<p class="calibre2"><span class="none1">a long paragraph with a couple of formattings in it, italics an so on.a long paragraph with a couple of formattings in it, italics an so on.a long paragraph with a couple of formattings in it, italics an so on.a long paragraph with a couple of formattings in it, italics an so on.</span> <span class="none13">something that has to look different</span> <span class="none1">and further...a long paragraph with a couple of formattings in it, italics an so on.a long paragraph with a couple of formattings in it, italics an so on.a long paragraph with a couple of formattings in it, italics an so on.a long paragraph with a couple of formattings in it, italics an so on..</span></p>

the none1 and the none13 are exactly the same, the last is just italic.


in the sony library viewer and on the sony reader:
all the (displayed) lines have the same space between them, except if there is a formatting tag in it. then the space becomes wider. with the beginning of the new (display)line the space becomes normal again.
even if i rename the formatting span-class, means none13 to none1...
the space persists.

that's funny, cause on the calibre viewer and sigil itself there is no such effect!


what's that?
