Help Please

[ecchi]

This is driving me mad for three reasons:
1) I should know this, but I've bloody forgotten.
2) I should be able to find the answer on Google, but I just spent half an hour trying with no luck.
3) G mentioned this in a post some time ago, but I cannot find that post.

So hopefully here someone can give me the answer.

When you use the head tags (H1 H2 etc) you get a gap below the text. However you can control the size of this gap, and you can loose it altogether. But I cannot remember how. Do can someone please remind me of the HTML.

Thanks.

In your css file/definition ... add something like this and tamper with it till its to your exact liking:

h1 {
font-weight: 800;
margin-top: 0px;
margin-bottom: 5px;
margin-left: 0px;
font-size: 150%;
color: #000000;
}
h2 {
font-weight: 400;
margin-top: 0px;
margin-bottom: 5px;
margin-left: 0px;
font-size: 100%;
color: #000000;
}

...or similar

Hincapie beat me to it but this is how I do it.

This will also remove the space in paragraphs.

h1, h2, h3, h4, h5, h6, p {
	margin: 0;
	padding: 0;
}

Yeah thats a nicer and simpler version too, i was just showing off with all the tweaks ya can add for no apparent or justifiable reason

These are the examples I have on my hand-written scratch-pad

<h1 style="line-height:105%; margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0;">
<h1 style="line-height:110%;">
<h1 style="margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0;">
<h1 style="margin-top:0;">
<h1 style="margin-bottom:0;">

Greenguy and his silly inline styles.

Actually, the particular page I wanted it for does not use CSS, so I needed inline (although once Hincapie mentioned "margin-top and margin-bottom" I knew enough to use these commands inside html style commands).

See! My HTML coding techniques are still in "style"

One place that inline css is very much necessary is email marketing. Using external stylesheets or even putting the css coding in the head section is guaranteed to cause failure and heartache.

Great line.

As someone who tends to be a bit "retro" (I still regularly use a computer made in the 1980s, and occasionally one made in the 1970s; I still use both video and super 8 cine film, and occasionally standard 8 film, etc....), I hope you don't mind if I steal that line occasionally to use in my own defence.

So you are saying that we were trailblazers!

No problem at all. Please consider it "user uploaded."
