Why doesn't Firefox show gaps between paragraphs when other browsers do?
When viewing pages of a website I created the spacing between paragraphs shows properly in Chrome and Safari, but there is no gap in Firefox.

Firefox seems to display the <br> differently than other webkit based browsers in this case. I'm not sure if this is related to the content: " "; rule that in Firefox possibly only work with ::before and ::after.
If I disable this specific rule in Google Chrome then IO get the same appearance as in Firefox.

You can use the builtin Inspector to check what CSS rules are applied.
- "3-bar" menu button or Tools -> Web Developer

I am using Firefox 55.0.3 on an iMac. An example page is https://www.stjohns-leytonstone.org.uk/aboutus/baptisms. Screenshots from Safari and Firefox are attached. As you'll see the Safari screenshot shows a gap between paragraphs. Other browsers I've tried do the same. Only Firefox doesn't.
I don't see any real difference. Except for the size of the font.
