#143345

I am creating a site for my school newspaper and inserted the name of our school into the HTML in the header to help our SEO. After I did this I changed the color of the text and made the background black so that it matches the rest of the site. There is however a white bar above that text that I added that I would like to get rid of. I thought that it might just be some padding somewhere in the css but cant find it.

The HTML in the header where I added the text

<blockquote><!– BEGIN: HEADER –>
<div style=”background-color:black”>
<font color=”#FFFFFF” face=”Tahoma, Arial, Verdana, sans-serif”>
<p>FRANCIS HOWELL NORTH HIGH SCHOOL – SAINT CHARLES, MO 63303</p>
</font>

<div id=”ja-headerwrap”>
<div id=”ja-header” class=”clearfix”>

<h1>
<a href=”index.php”>
<?php echo $tmpTools->sitename();?>
</a>
</h1>
</div>
</div></div>
<!– END: HEADER –></blockquote>

Just above the text that I added there is a white box. The url to see the problem is http://test.fhntoday.com/

If anyone can help me out with getting rid of that white space that would be great.

Thank you

Hi fhntoday,

I tried looking at your problem, although can not provide best solution to you, may be you can try the following to minimize the odd line :

Open your template_css.css Line 103.

Change :

[PHP]margin:10px 0;padding:0;}[/PHP]

to:

[PHP]margin:0 0;padding:0;}[/PHP]

Just give it a try and let us know.

regards

Arvind

That does not show up for me on line 103. Could you give a larger example of what should be above or below it, so that I can find the correct area that you are talking about?

Thanks for your help.

Hi,

Open your template_css.css on line 103

Change :
[php]p, pre, blockquote, ul, ol, h1, h2, h3, h4, h5, h6 {
margin: 10px 0;
padding: 0;
}[/php]To :

[php]p, pre, blockquote, ul, ol, h1, h2, h3, h4, h5, h6 {
margin: 0px 0;
padding: 0;
}[/php]

Also check if this change in code affects any other part of your template.

Thank you that got rid of almost the whole line, and it remains the same through the whole template without changing anything else.

Thank you again.
