On the development version of my Web app, the clickable area of some anchors is the text area and the padding (margin and border are both zero). On the production version, only the padding is clickable. Any hints on how to track down the difference that makes a difference would be appreciated.
TIA, Jeffrey
With firefox you could use firebug to discover how these properties are getting set.

The style and layout as reported by Firebug are identical. The HTML, at least right around the problematic section is identical. And the problem is not perfectly reproducible. Sometimes it's there, sometimes not. Firefox was not restarted between non-working and working sessions. Sigh.

It may be worth checking that the html is valid. View the source in the browser and copy/paste the complete page source into the w3c html validator.
