Loek, I was skeptical that that was the source of Mads' problem--the w3c
validator doesn't even throw a warning for uppercase tag names in selectors
[1]. A quick test in Firefox seemed to confirm that you were right, but then
I found two things:

1. Safari--arguably the most standards-compliant browser anywhere at this
time--has no such rendering problem
2. I have an xhtml 1.0 strict site that uses "Text with image" content
elements extensively (sorry, they're non-public), with no similar problems

Without deconstructing the entire CSS for the site, I'd have to guess that
Mads' problem is related somehow to the other CSS in the stylesheet (though
aside from one small error, the entire stylesheet is valid)...
