Extra spaces appearing around items separated by <BR>; CSS problem?

I am building a blog page that uses a lot of CSS (mostly borrwed from a Blogger template that I'm adapting for my use).

For some reason I can't figure out, all of the items separated by <BR> seem to have extra space above them. At various points, I've tried troubleshooting by removing all padding, margins, and line heights; to no avail. I think the CSS is to blame, because it was fine until I pasted in some of the CSS from the prewritten blog template.

The navigation should look like it does in the rest of the site, with the left navigation packed tightly together.

Note that this problem doesn't show up in IE 5 for Mac; it shows a little in Firefox and Safari for Mac; and it's very obvious in IE 6 for Windows.

Any help will be appreciated!

I cannot see what you describe on the page. Not in Mozilla nor IE6.
 
I've already fixed it, thanks.

The solution was to delete the <BR>s after each button, and add this at the end of the CSS:

img {
display: block;
}

That took care of the extra spacing!
