Struggling with height spacing

At the top of my forum, you will see “Microsoft Access Help Center”. I want to reduce the whitespace above and below it so I can see more of my forum above the fold. But I am not sure how to do this. Is it padding or something that needs changing?

Thanks,

Jon

Your link give bombs out for me, so I can’t see your page. Anyhow, it might just be the default margins on the element. Try margin: 0;

[FONT=Verdana]The link is OK for me. You have a table in there that appears to contain nothing but AdSense scripts; that’s what’s causing the white space. Look for the table that starts here:

<div align="center">
<!-- AdSense Start -->


<!-- / intro and adsense -->

<table width="100%" height="270" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0">

[/FONT]

The adsense scripts are not directly above and below the logo area so not sure how that causes the white space there.

I can’t access your page at all (10 attempts) but I had a look at the Google cached version. You have an empty table row above and one below that row that could be removed. E.g. This is the empty table row on top:

<tr>
    <td [COLOR="#FF0000"]height="5"[/COLOR] colspan="5" bgcolor="#FFFFFF">&nbsp;</td>
</tr>

Deleting that will remove the space at the top, and the same will happen at the bottom if you remove the following row.

That did the trick thanks. :slight_smile:

[FONT=Verdana]Sorry - I misinterpreted what you said. You mentioned that you wanted to show more of your forum above the fold, and the area of whitespace taking up most of my screen is the area with the AdSense scripts.

Editing the whitespace around the logo, frankly, is not going to make much difference to me. However, if that’s what you’re after then ralph.m is right; you have empty rows above and below it.

TechnoBear, do you have some form of adblocker on your browser since the ads aren’t showing on that image?

Ah, yes, that might explain it. :blush: Perhaps I should go back to bed. :slight_smile:
