Letters clumping together

Look at my website here:
http://www.cleopatravii.info/
You will notice that the letters in the html of my main page all clumps together and not spaced on lines like normal text.
What is going on here and how can I stop this from happening?
Thanks
DEAN

Re: Letters clumping together

add this to end of your stylsheet.css ..

#indexDefaultMainContent {
line-height:1.9em;
}

this should fix the problem . since this is custom template, designer might forgot some CSS code here and there. :unsure:

Re: Letters clumping together

Thanks. That fixed the problem on the main page.
However, please go to my site again:
http://www.cleopatravii.info/
Now click on "The name cleopatra" on the right.
You will see that the EZ Pages link still has the letters clumped together. How can I keep that happening in ez pages?
Maybe I should just get a new template if that one has bugs
Thanks

The fact the you seem to have copy/pasted the information on that page directly from MS frontpage may have something to do with the problem.

You have several instances of duplicating <html><head><body></body></html> tags throughout the page as seen in this section of code taken from a view source of the page.
