I know this is a topic that has been discussed before but I am not finding any answers from the other threads that might help me.
I have a simple list veiwer that is giving me extra space between the Title and the Content. I have taken aou the breaks and it still resolves that same. I am attributing this to the <p> that the TinyMce adds to the code. I have not had any trouble until now.

Here is my code:
<span class="lhead">Latest news</span>:<p>
<?php foreach ($side_newsRecords as $record): ?>
<span class="lhead"><?php echo $record['title'] ?></span>
<?php echo $record['content'] ?>
<?php endforeach; ?></p>

And here is the page it is currently on:

I need these to be tight (Title and Content)
Any suggestions?

Thanks

Add this CSS to your file named main.css. The first line that begins with .lhead is already in your file. Add the following 2 (bold) lines in the order that I have them here:

.lhead { font-weight: bold; font-size: 10px; text-transform: uppercase; color: #5D9E13; }
.lhead + p { margin-top: 0; }
p span.lhead { display: block; margin-top: 10px; margin-bottom: -10px; }

Note: This is a quick and dirty way to use CSS. I don't really recommend it, but it should solve your immediate problem.. namely to tighten up the space in between title and content in your sidebar items. The second line that I gave you is necessary because for some reason the title code for that top item, unlike the others, is wrapped in a <span> tag that is, itself, wrapped in a <p>.

Thanks Jim,

That worked just fine. I removed the extra <p></p> from the works because it was still affecting the very first item that was propagated in the listing. The rest were fine but just the first one kept the spacing. Anyway after I did that it lined up fine.

Thanks for the help.
