Hi Vijaykumar,

The height you see is the blank text between the open and close tags. 
Unfortunately IE still "sees" text when you write the two tags next to 
each other. Adding an HTML comment between works though:

  <div id="vscl"><!-- --></div>

Attempting to fake it with font-size will only break for your visitors 
that use IE accessibility options.

Cordially,
David
