Modify Jive stylesheet

Can any of you webdesign gurus out there identify the style that specifies the line-height of body text in archived posts?

Look at this post, for example. It would be much more readable if the line spacing were increased a bit, and if I knew what the style was, I could try and incorporate it into my custom.css for IE7. But because there are so many stylesheets loaded, I haven't managed to find the right one. Remember, 10 points for the first right answer .

Or am I trying to do something that can't be done?

    The css - and the html for that matter - on the old forums was a car crash, good luck making sense of it.

    Sorry, can't get at it - you've spotted, I'm sure, that in these messages with the 'proper' spacing you've got:

    p

    {

    font-size: 1.083em;

    line-height: 1.462;

    margin-top: 0pt;

    padding-bottom: 1px;

    margin-bottom: 1.2em;

    }

    Can't you use that?

    Thanks for looking, Kath. I've since noticed (an abusive post in Indesign helpfully responded to an archived post, so it was easier to compare) that the archived bit is missing the <p></p> tags that new ones have. How do we get someone to repair this?

    You're quite right: the styles you give have to be included in the jive-rendered-content bit. I'll give it a go, if my ten-year-old CSS skills can cope.
