The 'first heading has too much spacing' problem (css is wicked complicated)

I’ve been doing too much web-design lately. I’m in the part of the project when you start tweaking everything by 1 pixel, and get soooo pissed if it doesn’t line up just right.

Hopefully someone has a solution to this. Google couldn’t help me, as it’s too abstract.

In CSS, you set the spacing for your elements. So when I have a new first heading, I want 15 px of space above it, so it’s properly ‘set off’. But if that happens to be along the top of the page or a sub-element, then it’s 15 px down! Sometimes spacing is good, but in this case, it messes up the rest of the layout.

I was hoping to use one of the first_paragraph or first_element css elements, but they’re not supported by IE, and I couldn’t get them to work anyways.

Designing things ‘just right’ is hard, it’s always the last pixel that’s a killer. Or when people rescale the screen into really odd combinations and things run into each other. I have to say, designing with tables was far easier. I couldn’t do as much, but at least the paradigm was simple. CSS is wicked complicated.
