 * Hi
 * Trying to remove so much white space between list elements
 * How do I accomplish this?
 * I’ve tried line-height, padding, margins. Nothing is working for me.

 * On the page at the link above, you’ll see in the third column on the first set
   of quotes I’ve not created a list and the spacing is fine, but on the second 
   set of quotes it’s double spaced.
 * Thank you!!
 * BTW, finally sent donation today as I had promised!

 * Hi,
 * thanks for your post, and sorry for the trouble.
 * The reason for this is the mixture of text and HTML tags that you are using.
 * In that cell, you have created the first list items by prepending the symbol
 *     ```
       •
       ```
   
 * (with the code `&``#8226;`) before the text, whereas you are using `<li>` HTML
   tags for the other ones.
    However, when using HTML code, one has to be careful
   with line breaks in the table cell, as those are converted to HTML `<br />` tags(
   which results in line breaks when the table is viewed). So, my suggestion here
   would be to either use
 *     ```
       •
       ```
   
 * (with the code `&``#8226;`) consistently, or to use `<li>` approach consistently
   and then turn off that automatic conversion by changing the table Shortcode to
 *     ```
       [table id=12 convert_line_breaks=false /]
       ```
   
 * Regards,
    Tobias
