[resolved] Whitespace above image (12 posts)

    Hi,

    How do I get rid of the dead space above images in WP? for examples, see:

    http://crosslandteam.com/blog/2005/08/04/steves-austin-rental-market-update-august-2005/

    and

    http://crosslandteam.com/blog/2005/08/09/south-austin-area-10-prices-rising-finally/

    The method I am using for these is to firt ftp the image to my server, then click the img button while writing the article, then pasting the url to the image into the popup box for the image.

    If there is a better way that will not result in the gaps above the image, please let me know.

    Thanks,

    Steve

    I don't see any "dead space" above the images.
    In the first example you linked there is only the usual space for paragpraphs (meaning probably the Enter was hit twice before inserting the image code); in the second example the image is starting on the next line after the text.
    FF1.0.4

    Hmmm, well in both IE and Firefox, I see big gaps above the image. Does anyone else see gpas above the images?

    Gaps? You don't want any gaps above your banner you mean? - if that's what you're saying. Maybe it's a margin/padding problem?

    Thanks for the reply. No, directly above the images in both links above, I see over a half page of whitespace - a gap of dead page space. On closer examination, it looks like the top of the images line up with the botttom of my left menu and the images are slightly wider than the space allowed for next to the left menu. Maybe that's causing it to jump down further on the page where it can fit?

    I don't see any gaps either. Is your cache clear. Have you refreshed your browser? Iknow... too obvious.

    Hm, I don't really see a problem. It looks perfectly fine. Perhaps a screenshot where the error is would best explain what you are viewing?

    Followup:
    I just viewed the pages from my laptop, which a higher resolution screen than my desktop, and there are no gaps. I suspect my image is too wide for the width of a 640x800 screen. Does that sound like the problem?

    Thanks for the feedback.

    Re your just-previous post: could be.... except I just dropped my res to 800x600 and it still looks great. Absolutely no oddball white space anywhere.

    Yeah, I just went back and dropped res again to 800x600, and THEN narrowed the browser window way down, and it's still just fine. Nice job, and sad you can't see it!
