Re: a href without text content ignores increases p height

[Nosenation]

Problem is with padding on a tag and height of p tag. P tag height is = to a tag height + padding on bot and top.

This should work (simplified version):

CSS:
p{
background:#d5d5d5;
height: 40px;
}
.smallbutton {
display: inline-block;
height: 20px;
line-height: 20px;
text-decoration: none;
background:#333;
color:#fff;
padding: 10px;
}
