    Default Banner Box Margins or padding in side columns

    I created a banner which is displayed in the right side of my main page, I assume it is in the "navColumnTwo" class="columnRight". The banner's position is on the top of the column.

    There is white space above the banner, or between the top of the banner and the navCatTabsWrapper ?

    How can I reduce or eliminate this space or margin? I've search the forum for something that would guide me such as in the stylesheet.css.

    Any help is greatly appreciated and well worth a cup of coffee.

    I think it's the .rightBoxContainer class.

    See if there's a margin there. This will change the margin for the whole right box container, no matter what box is shown.

    For the left box, .leftBoxContainer

    It may also be .columnRight or .columnLeft

    birdoasis, thanks for the quick reply, but I think this is a par 3 and I tried those two suggestions and got no result, that's two more strokes on my score card.

    Does anyone have another suggestion?

    This is what I use in my stylesheet.css

    .leftBoxContainer, .rightBoxContainer {
    margin-top: 1.5em;
    }

    thanks Clyde.
    That suggestion worked like a charm for the margin between the right hand banner and the nav bar. Now all I have to do is figure out why the right hand column has more margin than the left.

    cup of java due you!

    Making the changes to the .leftBoxContainer, .rightBoxContainer {
    margin-top: 1.5em; } helped, however if I click on a category or product things shif t, see attached upload pic.
