Is anyone familiar with HTML that can tell me how to modify the default code so that it doesn't insert unwanted spaces?  Especially with bulleted items, when I want them to appear eight below nonbulleted items?  I'm aware I can get around the regular spaces by holding shift when I press enter, but that doesn't solve the bullets issue.
 
Thanks

hi David_H,
 
resurrecting my somewhat rusty CSS knowledge... You can adjust how much space you want before the bulleted list by putting this into the <style> tag:
 
ul {margin-top: 0px;}
 
Here the space before the bullet list is set to zero. However, you'll still have the space after the preceding paragraph. To remove that, add this line to the <style> tag:
 
p {margin-bottom: 0px;}
 
This removes space after your paragraphs. A paragraph followed by a paragraph should still have space in between - this will be taken care of by the margin-top attribute of the paragraphs, which has been left alone.
 
So if you copy the above two lines into your <style> tag you should get the result you want.
 
ul = unordered list, ie bullets. If you want the same for numbered lists, add a similar line but use ol (unordered list).
 
Hope that helps, as Pierre would say!
