basic CSS, align text to top of div

How do I make the first paragraph of text in a div start against the top edge?

thanks

DIV>p:first-child {margin-top: 0}

That won't work in Internet Explorer 6, if you need it to, you'll have to set up a class and apply the class to those paragraphs.

Thanks,
can I set that up in my CSS for the Div?
It does not seem to work there
But does in the paragraph without first child?

#month1Dates, #month2Dates{
        width: 271px;
        top: 0;
        float: left;
        border: 1px solid #CEB1E4;
        padding: 0 5px 0 5px;
        text-align:left;
can I put it here?
    }

seems to work like this

#month2Dates p{
        padding: 0 0 0 0;
        margin-top: 0;        
    }

No, you can't put it in #month1Dates or #month2Dates. You could do it as #month1Dates p, #month2Dates p, but that will apply to all paragraphs in that section, not just the first one.
