HTML - Adding Spacing Between Letters

Hey folks...

I've searched and searched for an answer for this, but with no luck. Probably because I don't know how to exactly describe my problem. Anyway, the issue is my page is displaying differently in IE and Firefox (surprise!). The spacing between the top image and the body divs are different. I'm not sure if it's an HTML issue or a CSS one.

The page in question is: http://www.project-43.com/

The CSS file is he http://project-43.com/images/style.css

It displays the way I want it too in Firefox. If you look at it in IE, you'll see the top image looks short, but that is because the spacing between the left menu area and the body on the right is too big.

I appreciate any pointers that you might be able to offer.

Thanks!

Hello Everyone: I am a novice HTML user - I use it to create a Help file (for an MS/Access database), using HTML Help Workshop. My question concerns line spacing, using the following code:

<b><u>Server:</u></b>
<ul>
<li>First List item...</li>
</ul>

Using this code, there will be a blank line between "Server" and "First List item...". Is it possible to eliminate this line and have the list start in the next line after "Server"?

Thanks. . .

Alright i'm having a little trouble. When I add stuff to the side boxes, they are farther down then i want them to be, here is a pic:



I'm wanting to move it up some, but I don't know how, I have been trying for a long time though.

Here is the HTML Code:
Code:

<div class="box2 margin1">
						<div class="tail-right">
						<div class="corner-right-bottom">
						<div class="corner-left-bottom">
						<div class="corner-right-top">
						<div class="corner-left-top">
							<div class="indent">
								<h3><span><span>Partners</span></span></h3>
								<div class="indent2">
								<center><a href="http://www.elitepvpers.de"><img src="http://img230.imageshack.us/img230/2364/31421454.png" border="0"></a></center>
					<center><a href="http://www.4botters.com"><img src="http://img814.imageshack.us/img814/2599/88029646.png" border="0"></a></center>
								
									<div id="vent"><div style="font-weight: bold; font-size: 12px; text-align: center;"><a href="ventrilo://94.75.238.76:4696/servername=EQGVent" style="text-decoration: none;"></a></div></div>
								</div>
							</div>
						</div>
						</div>
						</div>
						</div>
						</div>
					</div>

Here is the CSS:
Code:

.box2 {background:#bec2c5 url(images/box2-bottom-tail.gif) bottom repeat-x;}
.box2 .tail-right {background:url(images/box2-right-tail.gif) right repeat-y;}
.box2 .corner-right-bottom {background:url(images/box2-corner-right-bottom.gif) right bottom no-repeat;}
.box2 .corner-left-bottom {background:url(images/box2-corner-left-bottom.gif) left bottom no-repeat;}
.box2 .corner-right-top {background:url(images/box2-corner-right-top.gif) right top no-repeat;}
.box2 .corner-left-top {background:url(images/box2-corner-left-top.gif) left top no-repeat; width:100%;}
.box2 .indent {padding:4px 6px 6px 4px;}
.box2 .indent2 {padding:15px 12px 0px 6px;}

Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.

I have a couple of really small spacing problems.

my website is www.betdemon.com

you will see from the pic that the spacing 1# on the left hand side is different to the spacing 2# on the right hand side and looks uneven. I want spacing 2# to be the same as 1# - how do i do this?


Also you will see there is a gap between banners (3#) but this doesn't appear when viewing in Firefox - How can I make the gap appear?

Thanks in advance

So, I am working on a website for the final project for one of my classes, and while it looks fine in Firefox and Safari, there is some funky spacing in my divs/table set up with my inline frame in IE: (I have IE 7, but I would like this to work in all versions as I'm not sure what browser my professor has)

http://grandmas.host-ed.net/

in IE, you will see there is a space below the top banner and another one between the footer and the border... how can I get rid of these?

Here is my code (image map removed b/c it's long and unneeded for my question)
Code:

<html>
<head>
<title>Grandma Mae's Country Naturals</title>
</head>
<body background="bg.jpg" bgproperties="fixed"> 

<center>

<table Cellpadding="0" Cellspacing="0" border="0">

<tr><td>
<div style="border: solid 0 #a34c30; border-left-width:3px; border-right-width:3px; border-top-width:3px; padding-left:0ex 
padding-right:0ex padding-top:0ex padding-bottom:0ex">
<img src="gcn_nav2.jpg" usemap="#mymap" border="0">
</div></td></tr>

<tr><td>
<div style="border: solid 0 #a34c30; border-left-width:3px; border-right-width:3px; padding-left:0ex padding-right:0ex 
padding-top:0ex padding-bottom:0ex">
<IFRAME name="inlineframe" src="home.html" width=854 height=350 frameborder="0"></IFRAME>
</div></td></tr>

<tr><td>
<div style="border: solid 0 #a34c30; border-left-width:3px; border-right-width:3px; border-bottom-width:3px; 
padding-left:0ex padding-right:0ex padding-bottom:0ex padding-top:0ex">
<img src="footer2.jpg">
</div>
</td></tr></table>

<font color="FFCC99" size="1" face="Georgia, Times New Roman, Times, serif"><b>This site is not affiliated with Grandma Mae's County Naturals</b></font>

</center>
</map>
</body>
</html>

It's kind of improvised and I am no html expert so perhaps there is a better way to get the look I was going for? Also, I know there is some extra/unneeded code there, but it's all stuff I added when trying to fix the spacing (and it didn't work) and was too lazy to take away. haha

Thanks a ton,

Hello,

I have a table text spacing problem. I'm trying to have two text elements (p's, spans's, whatever) stacked vertically or as close as possible underneath one of other. I cannot for the life of me remove the gap in between. I've tried margins, padding, cellpadding/cellspacing, border-collapse, and still, nothing works.

I've attached an example using primitive HTML.

Anyone have any ideas?

The code:

Code:

<table width="650" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">
  <tr>
    <td>TEXT</td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td>TEXT2</td>
  </tr>
</table>

Thanks!


Edit: Line-height did the trick.

Hi there. I am upkeeping a website in wordpess and one of the posts has links which always appear to be double-spaced. I want them to be single-spaced. I have tried changing around the html coding and such but it has not changed the spacing. I don't know much about html so my attempts have been experimentational. The html tags in there are ul, li and a href=. I've tried taking each out to no avail. What should I do? Thank you very much for your help.

I'm new to HTML/XHTML, so thanks for helping me understand the spacing rules that are applying he

HTML:

Quote:
<div id="nav">
<ul>
<li><a href="index.html">Main</a></li>
<li><a href="resume.html">Resume</a></li>
<li><a href="portfolio.html">Portfolio</a></li>
<li><a href="contact.html">Contact and Networking</a></li>
</ul>
</div>
CSS:

Quote:
#nav
{
height: 37px;
text-align: center;
background-color: #858585;
}

#nav ul
{
margin: 0;
}

#nav li
{
display: inline;
}

#nav a
{
padding: 9px 12px 9px 12px;
line-height: 38px;
border-left: 1px solid black;
}
Between every link in my horizontal navigation menu, there is a space (which I don't want). In order to get rid of this space, I have to change my HTML code to...

Quote:
<div id="nav">
<ul>
<li><a href="index.html">Main</a></li><li><a href="resume.html">Resume</a></li><li><a href="portfolio.html">Portfolio</a></li><li><a href="contact.html">Contact and Networking</a></li>
</ul>
</div>
...which in turn sacrifices readability. This all seems very counter-intuitive to me, since I was under the impression that I could format my code readably without having to worry about its presentation. I can only guess that my line breaks (textual line breaks, not actual <br /> tags) are being interpreted as white space within my <ul>. If this is the case, my only other option would be to display my <li>s as block elements with zero margins, float them, and then use margins to push them to the middle (which is all WAY uglier than being able to center them with text-align).

This is how I understand what's going on. If I am correct, does this mean I'm forced to sacrifice readability for functionality?

Just learning this stuff. I am having trouble controlling space between lines.
My HTML coding is resulting in too much space between lines. I am afraid I have no idea how to control spacing. I have fiddled with different coding. Here is the current version:
<td class="headerbg" colspan="2" width="600">
<div align="left"><p style="font-family:verdana; color:00bfff; font-size:30px;" >the amazing alexander technique </p><p style="font-family:verdana; color:00bfff; font-size:20px;" >so much more than 'posture' and pain relief </p>
</div>
</td>

Thanks for any help. Pointing me to resource where I can read the solution would be great.

In static FBML (which takes HTML) how do you decrease the spacing after the </p> tag? I have a heading and a subheading that and am separating the two via </p> but the spacing is too much. I can increase, but can't decrease it.

i want to move and image up at least -2px is that possible in html or css?

thanx in advance...

hey...hope i can sort this out quickly its only a small problem.. but if you look here ...

http://anastaciadreams.com/layouttest/test.html

youll notice on Internet explorer theres a space in the 2 parts of the banner area, how do i remove this?

I am a flash developer and our client wants this site to be built using mainly html, I am pretty good with html but not even close to an expert.

I have built a site with Flash vertical and horizontal nav bars above and beside my html content. In Firefox and Safari the site looks perfect, however in IE6 & IE7 there is about a 5 pixel gap between my vertical menu bar and the rest of my content. I have tried everything I know to correct this problem...

Any Ideas? They would be greatly appreciated....

Alright, I have a DIV with this as the background image:


I put two textboxes over them, the first one is aligned ok but the second one is too high. How do I space them out?

When I try br it goes down way too far.

Here is what it looks like right now:


Should I use a table? more DIVs? Or, is there a css code I could use to bring it down?

I have a problem with my banner. the images have gaps between them, so it looks tacky.

Here is the Site:
