It's very nasty, because for some reason setting a margin doesn't work
(I've not spent very much time on it so I don't know why), but you can
add this to your stylesheet:

.question td{
	border-top: solid 1em white;
}

Quite an unpleasant hack, but it seems to be effective, at least using
Firefox on Ubuntu...

I'm surprised to see that the page is layed-out in a table; it's not as
if you have a complicated layout that's difficult to achieve using <div>
tags. I think that probably contributes to CSS not doing what you might
expect. Presumably the use of a table is related to the page begin
generated using DocBook...?

Cheers,

Richard.
