white space in grid header

[Steve]

I’m trying out the grid control and have a problem.  When I create a new project in VS 2012 using the Kendo wizard and simply replace the sample controls with a simple grid (source code attached), my grid headers don’t look right – there is a white space at the top of the header cells.  This space doesn’t appear in the “Getting Started with MVC” samples that I downloaded.  I can’t figure out how to correct this.  Screenshot of my grid is also attached.

Hi Steve,

From the provided picture is not clear what the actual reason for the issue is, however most probably there is some CSS rule which influences the default layout. Could you please check this suggestion?

Problem with grid went away after I removed the default Site.css reference from the _Layout.cshtml file (but this messed up the overall layout of the page).  Then I restored the reference and the page layout was back the way it should be and the grid header still looked good.  So I guess I had a bad version of the Site.css in the IE cache that didn't get updated. 
I'm good now - thanks for the hint.

In my case, it was a table margin present in Site,css as
margin-top: 0.75em;

Changed it to 
margin-top: 0em;
and the header was fine...
