Dreamweaver problem

Hi,

Could someone please help me? When I create a cell in dreamweaver and add my type, say an heading then a paragraph underneath that the paragraph when returned down to the next line always seems to have a mind of its own and return down with a large spacing/gap between the heading and its self. Is there anyway of decreasing this space between them?

Thanks in advance.

Damion.

css:

* {padding:0; margin:0;}

sets everything to zero than you add padding and margin to any element you want

When clicking enter in Dreamweaver, it produces a <p>, which causes a paragraph break. Press "shift & enter" at the same time which produces a <br>, which is a line break. I think that is what you are after.

Brilliant thanks, don't know what that other thing is by Finbarr. But this is exactly what I am after.

Dame. You would do well to click on code view every once in a while to see what code changes your design view editting is making. Relying solely on dreamweaver's design view will only bring you trouble. Amen.

Seconded, Amen to that!

If you feel out of your depth looking solely at the code view you can look at the split screen in Dreamweaver.

It helps you to get more familiar with the code itself. Meaning you'll be able to even re-code parts of your page(s) more efficiently.

<h1>text here</h1>
<p>text here <br />
more text here</p>

the line after a br inherits whats above because it is still the same element
