Gap on main page between menu bar and content

mw4kids · 31st October 2009, 01:04 AM

Hello,

I just recently changed the content on my main page and it was fine yesterday and today I noticed a big gap between the navcattabs wrapper and the content. Anyway way I can get these closer:

Here is a snippet of the html I pasted into the Define Pages Editor:

<body>

oh PS I use Kompozer and there was no spacing between the top of the page and where I began typing (reads 0px)

It's not a good idea generally to paste copy from a WYSIWYG editor into a define page. Better to use the built-in editor or code the HTML by hand. In this case, it's the tags that your editor added that are causing that gap.
