 * Hi,
 * I’m using the default theme. When clicking on a ‘Category’ or ‘Archive’ link 
   in the right hand navigation the content area has 2 gaps above and below.
 * I’ve worked out why. Looking at the code this is inserted in 2 places in my page.
 *     ```
       <div class="navigation">
        <div class="alignleft"></div>
        <div class="alignright"></div>
       </div>
       ```
   
 * The CSS associated with the navigation is creating gaps.
 * Why is this navigation code empty divs? What navigation should be here? How can
   I change this? I’ve looked through all files and can’t see how to update or change!
 * TIA,
 * Adrian

 * Hi again,
 * I’ve searched everywhere for a solution to this but no luck. On any of the ‘Archive’
   pages the Previous and Next links are not displaying. How can I make them appear?
 * In ‘archive.php’ there is this code:
 *     ```
       <div class="navigation">
        <div class="alignleft"><?php next_posts_link('&laquo; Previous Entries') ?></div>
        <div class="alignright"><?php previous_posts_link('Next Entries &raquo;') ?></div>
       <div>
       ```
   
 * but when published it only uses the code:
 *     ```
       <div class="navigation">
        <div class="alignleft"></div>
        <div class="alignright"></div>
       </div>
       ```
   
 * How can I make the links appear like on [http://arsenalnewsblog.com/2007/04/page/2/](http://arsenalnewsblog.com/2007/04/page/2/)
 * None of the WordPress Help pages have code that works for this in the default
   template.
 * Thanks again,
 * Adrian
