How to get rid of the excess space at the top and at the bottom of a HTML page?

 

SUBSCRIBER QUESTIONS PART 4
———————————–

Detlev,

I’m working on my first website and have run into a problem with editing on Nvu html editor. My url is identitytheft-protectionalert.com

Take a look at it and see if you can tell me how to get rid of the excess space at the top and at the bottom.

I have other little problems like that all related to html editors, working with ftp after the file is uploaded, and cpanel access etc. but will keep trying to find tutorials. Hard to find anything that really gets into the basics. It’s easy to see why many people give up or quit. I spent the whole weekend on the above mentioned problem with the excess space believing it had to be trying to change table size, paragraphs, style etc. No progress whatsoever.

Appreciate it if you have any detailed solution.

You can use my name, although it may not mean much.

Thanks
Ron

Question: how to get rid of the excess space at the top and at the bottom?

 

ANSWER:

Hi Ron,

Although I am not using the NVU HTML editor myself, this question is quite easy to answer:

Go into the menu, choose “File”/”Page Setup” and click on the tab “Margins & Header/Footer”. By default, most editors have a value in there. In the case of NVU, I discovered it”s a standard value of 0,5 cm which they”ve set there. Just set it to 0.0 for the header and footer section and you”re done.

If that doesn”t work and your page is using CSS then the corresponding *.css is the file where you need to look for the solution. Just try to find a section within this file (open it with a text editor) where it is mentioning any page margins at the top/bottom and correct the values. Then save the CSS file and upload it to your server again.

I hope, this helps…
