Answer 1

Without seeing more of your code, it's hard to determine what might be happening ... especially regard to the cascade affecting the element.

However, try changing your ems to pixels:

dd { margin: -12px 40px 0 10px; }

Note: You may need to adjust the pixel values, but you get the idea.

Every em value is relative to its parent's value. If you are using em's as a straight substitution for pixel values, this can cause problems.
