 * Could someone take a look at the WP blog I’m installing for my wife at [http://www.thetrenchcoat.com/JADE/index.php](http://www.thetrenchcoat.com/JADE/index.php)
   and tell me how I can fill in the blanks where the background is showing above
   the content? I can’t seem to fill in those gaps. Any help is appreciated.

 * In .credit, make the margin 0px
    That should sort the bottom bit. The bit above
   content .. I’m sure it’s the table, but I can’t quite see how. Menu .. have you
   reduced the ‘top’ value by a few pixels to see if that works ?

 * Something is putting a carriage return after the table, but before the content
   div.
    Making your #content margins like this; margin: -20px 13em 0 0em; brings
   the div up, but it also obscures (or might – I’m playing with code here) the 
   bottom line of the top box. A temp solution is to add a carriage return into 
   the top box, and make the negative margin above …I’ll keep playing though 🙂

 * Okay … check here;
    [http://www.tamba2.org.uk/diablo.html](http://www.tamba2.org.uk/diablo.html)
   That’s that middle box in css. (view Source and pinch it). Using that, I get 
   no gap here, but of course I’ve only got part of the page anyway ….. let us know
   if it does anything ?
