Removing Unwanted Spaces

Unwanted spaces.

This can be one of the most annoying things about using a WYSIWYG program for making web pages.  But, with a little knowledge of HTML, you can remedy the situation quickly and easily.

This is what makes a space in HTML:  

So, if you have spaces you don't want, you need to find the spot in the page you are working on and remove that code.

Let's try it.  Follow these easy steps:

  1. Look in the Tools menu and go to the HTML Tools sub-menu. Choose Edit HTML Source. A new window will appear, allowing you to edit the HTML.

  2. Find the place in the code below where the extra space is and remove the " ". (look for the words "Here is some text we can use.)

  3. Click "Apply" or "OK". The extra spaces in your page will be removed.

 

Here is some text we can use.
 
 
 

There are too many spaces between lines.
Get one or both out of there!
