Too much whitespace on main_page

At the top of my main page, there is a huge amount of Whitespace between the "Welcome to..." message and the beginning of my "define_main_page". I can't figure out how to reduce this wasted space.

Any hints?

Thanks!

Re: Too much whitespace on main_page

Sorry that would help..

I've been digging around in tpl_header and tpl_main_page which is where I think I need to work, but cannot figure out what's causing the problem.

Re: Too much whitespace on main_page

You used one of the HTML editors, right? You have empty <p> tags that are taking up space.

<div id="indexDefaultMainContent" class="content"><p align="center"><font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" color="#000000" size="3"><strong></strong></font></p><p align="center"><font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" color="#000000" size="3"><strong></strong></font></p><p align="center"><font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" color="#000000" size="3"><strong>We sell over 5000 racing products. If you don't see what you need online, <br /><font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" color="#000000" size="3"><strong>give us a call 9AM-5PM CST to order!</strong></font></strong></font></p><p align="center"><font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" color="#000000" size="3"><strong><img hspace="0" src="http://www.moto-delta.com/store/images/manufacturers.gif" align="baseline" border="0" /></strong></font></p><p align="center" /><p align="center"> <a href="http://moto-delta.com/race_program.html" target="_blank"><img height="131" alt="MotoDelta Racing" hspace="0" src="http://www.moto-delta.com/images/MainRacingImage.jpg" width="170" align="baseline" border="1" /></a>  <a href="http://moto-delta.com/v-web/b2" target="_blank"><img height="131" hspace="0" src="http://www.moto-delta.com/images/RacingNews.jpg" width="119" align="baseline" border="1" /></a> <a href="http://moto-delta.com/ser_street.html" target="_blank"><img height="132" hspace="0" src="http://www.moto-delta.com/images/MainServiceImage.jpg" width="165" align="baseline" border="1" /></a>  </p></div>

Re: Too much whitespace on main_page

Similar problem, but I can't seem to get rid of the tiny space in between my navbar/breadcrumbs and my main page. I dont want any space at all
