htmlcssspacing

In HTML do you insert a small space in between lines

When I use <p> I get to large of a space but when I use <br\> I don't get large enough of a space.

alt text

I want a large space between "Glucose Levels" and "I have recently been diagnosed..."

Solution

  • Using proper mark-up, ideally semantic mark-up, for your content aids you greatly in styling that content:

    <h1>What vitamins amd supplements help control glucose levels?</h1>
<p>I am a recently diagnosed type-II diabetic. Lately, my glucose levels have been very high.</p>

    With the css:

    h1 {
    font-size: 1.2em;
    margin: 0; /* removes any default margin placed on the h1 element */
}
h1 + p { /* selects only those p elements immediately following a h1 */
    margin: 1em 0 0 0; /* short hand for margin-top margin-right margin-bottom margin-left */
}
