Inexplainable space between lines...

[Kasper_H]

Hello again :)
I don't get this: Quite often when i modify some templates, i will get a space between the lines. So it's like

1. Line
(A half, empty line)
2. Line

So there's a line spacing of 1? :confused:
Then the weird thing is, that if i change the code back to the original (which didn't have a line spacing of 1? before) I get the space :eek: I don't get it!

What have i done wrong? :confused:

A spacer image maybe? Could you post a screenshot of what it is?

If you have entered a hard return this can sometimes end up causing the browser to display extra space.

Hard return? Sorry... I have no idea of what this is :/

That^ :)

[Kasper_H]

Oh... Hehe :p

Well, the spaces are still there even though I'm using the original code, which didn't have any spaces before, so I'm guessing this isn't the course :/

How about posting the bit of code so we can see if we can spot anything else?

This is the code:
<td bgcolor="{firstaltcolor}" valign="top" $width>
<img src="{imagesfolder}/$forum[onoff].gif" border="0" alt="" />
<a href="forumdisplay.php?s=$session[sessionhash]&forumid=$forum[forumid]"><normalfont><b>$forum[title]</b></normalfont></a><br>
<a href="showthread.php?s=$session[sessionhash]&goto=lastpost&forumid=$forum[forumid]" title="By: $forum[lastposter]"><smallfont><b>$showlastpostingtitle</b></smallfont></a>
</td>

Which results in this (It's in columns by the way):

Please? Anyone?

You could try editing the code to:


<td bgcolor="{firstaltcolor}" valign="top" $width><img src="{imagesfolder}/$forum[onoff].gif" border="0" alt="" align="absmiddle" />&nbsp;<a href="forumdisplay.php?s=$session[sessionhash]&forumid=$forum[forumid]"><normalfont><b>$forum[title]</b></normalfont></a><br><a href="showthread.php?s=$session[sessionhash]&goto=lastpost&forumid=$forum[forumid]" title="By: $forum[lastposter]"><smallfont><b>$showlastpostingtitle</b></smallfont></a></td>

Uhhh... no. A hard return is only read as a <br /> by the worst browsers.<td bgcolor="{firstaltcolor}" valign="top" $width>
<img src="{imagesfolder}/$forum[onoff].gif" border="0" alt="" />
<a href="forumdisplay.php?s=$session[sessionhash]&forumid=$forum[forumid]"><normalfont><b>$forum[title]</b></normalfont></a><br>
<a href="showthread.php?s=$session[sessionhash]&goto=lastpost&forumid=$forum[forumid]" title="By: $forum[lastposter]"><smallfont><b>$showlastpostingtitle</b></smallfont></a>
</td>After looking closely at your code, I can tell you now it's the IMG. IMG's have a tendancy to do that, especially if they're taller than the text around them. I would suggest this:<td bgcolor="{firstaltcolor}" valign="middle" $width>
<img src="{imagesfolder}/$forum[onoff].gif" border="0" alt="" /></td><td bgcolor="{firstaltcolor}" valign="top" $width>
<a href="forumdisplay.php?s=$session[sessionhash]&forumid=$forum[forumid]"><normalfont><b>$forum[title]</b></normalfont></a><br>
<a href="showthread.php?s=$session[sessionhash]&goto=lastpost&forumid=$forum[forumid]" title="By: $forum[lastposter]"><smallfont><b>$showlastpostingtitle</b></smallfont></a>
</td>It should put the image in its own cell just to the left of the text, and remove the 1.5 linespacing-effect.
