    I seem to have a problem in my website at
    http://www.buy-and-benefit.com/

    There is a gap between the top of the content area and the nemu.

    I made a test. I created a new page and wrote a few words at the top of the editor (once the visual, once for the HTML)

    It is here http://www.buy-and-benefit.com/?page_id=288

    I think that my problem is that I don’t know how to work with the editor.

    Do I have to insert tags like <html></html><head></head><body></body>? because I did.

    So how do I use the editor?

    No. Those are handled by the theme files. If there’s an issue between the content area and the menu, then it’s the style.css file you want to fix (probably edit margin or padding on the menu)

    The editor has NOTHING to do with the presentation/layout of the site. All it affects is the content.

    Thanks for the instant reply.

    Does it mean that I cant insert a code for a table or a menu in the HTML editor? Just text and images? and make changes to them?

    No, you can insert code for tables and such (I think for tables, though, you need a plugin), but the HTML editor is a lot like using Microsft Word. There’s buttons there to format the text. but the editor for posts and Pages is NOT for laying out the page – it’s *solely* for the content of the page. The *theme* is for th elayout, and it pulls in the content.
