Widget Alignment Problem

    My “Categories” and “Archives” widgets display as properly aligned, however my “Links” widget is displaying with all of the text elements shifted down 1px (if properly aligned they should be moved up 1px). If I experiment with adding additional widgets to my sidebar, I get other random “1px off” misalignment issues. How would I go about fixing this issue so that I have a pixel perfect alignment for all of my widgets?

    The issue exists in FireFox 3.6.13 and Internet Explorer 8. The widgets do however appear to be perfectly aligned in Opera 10.63.

    It would be helpful to actually see the Links widget in the sidebar of your site.

    The “links” category in this case is entitled “Popular Salt Water Taffy Recipes”. Apologies for not pointing that out.

    I can’t see any problem with those links.

    Depending on your screen resolution, it may be difficult to see as it’s just a 1px misalignment. Unfortunately it’s fairly visible with my screen setting (1280×1024 resolution).

    I attempted to add the follow code to style.css, however I can’t seem to get it to work. Any suggestions?

    .linkcat-2 a{
margin-top: -1px;
}

    I just checked my alignment issue in the newest edition of Google Chrome, and it looks perfect.

    So the issue only exists in FireFox and Internet Explorer, but not in Opera or Chrome. Is there a way that I can add a filter function to make the 1px widget alignment adjustment just for IE and Firefox, and not for any other browsers?

    My coding skills are not the best, so forgive me if these are basic questions.
