I'm trying to make some type of nav-bar with 6 buttons. If I do this in a table, and set each row height to 20, it looks fine in dw3 until I view it in the browser. Then it expands the cell almost twice as big so that I have huge buttons that look ridiculous. The same thing happens if I just use layers set to 20 pixels in height.

Even if I just make one layer, width 140, height 20, with "text" and bg color blue, when viewed in the browser, it increases the height to probably 35 or 40 (estimate).

All I put in the cell or layer is text and a bg color. Nothing else. Is there some limitation as to how small I can have a cell or layer?
 
I think I may have figured it out....

I was changing the format of the text to heading 4 or 5. If I just leave the format alone, the cell size does not change. Also it seems that a cell border increases the cell height, but only slightly.
