[WSG] p tag

2006-01-11 Thread Todd Gleaton



Hello All,

I am using the p align='justify' to justify my 
text. I am getting a huge break between
the picture above and where the text starts with the tag 
mentioned above. What is the 
best way to rid the white space? I've seen this problem 
a lot but have come to no 
conclusive way of getting rid of it.

Anyone have a good suggestion for this?

Thankstg

Hello Todd,

the idea 0 (I had to learn) is: Add

padding:0; margin:0

Then see, if the problem exists again.

It would help to have a page to look at.
Heres my first guess. Are you floating the image and text? If so,
perhaps justify is extending the width of the text to make it too long to fit
in the same space as the image and it drops down below the image? Does this
make sense? 



CSS will over-ride any inline attributes,
such as align=justify. That should be placed in your CSS instead
of the tag. Try p class=wackyparagraph

p.wackyparagraph {text-align:justify;}



Try sending a link for better feedback.

Float the image.


p style=text-align: justify;
This is some justified text.  This is some justified text.  This is some 
justified text.  This is some justified text.  This is some justified 
text.  This is some justified text.  This is some justified text.  This

Well first of all, you should use CSS instead of your attribute:

p {
  text-align: justify;
}

The issue you are talking about is the margin of the p tag. You can
remove it by adding margin:0; to the CSS above, however, I strongely
suggest you not to.
