zero_ZX Posted April 19, 2012 Share Posted April 19, 2012 Hi, I'm not very good with design I usually download a theme that does the trick However I'm having problems with this one, and guess I have to solve them myself. I have this short bit of HTML: <div class="arch_news" align="left"> <div class="arch_up"><!-- <font color="#20628e">posted by: Evil!</font> 00/00/0000--></div> <div class="arch_repeat"> <?php echo $row->page_content ?> </div> <div class="arch_end"></div> </div> Which works quite well, it displays everything correctly. The problem appears when there's any kind of html formatting in the page content. This is how the page looks like with HTML: Kindly notice that the border doesn't go all the way, but stops. So when I avoid HTML, and use a short line I get this result: This time the box display fine, but at the very bottom the header is "lifted" and doesn't stay down. Here's my CSS which I believe is the problem: /* CSS Document */ BODY { background:#000000; background-image:url(../images/background.png); background-position:top ; background-repeat:no-repeat; padding:0px; margin:0px; } .header { position:relative; width:989 px; padding:0px; margin:0px; font-family:Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size:13px; } .footer { position:relative; background: url(../images/foot_repeat.png) repeat-x;

sunfighter Posted April 20, 2012 Share Posted April 20, 2012 I'm going to guess here. Your title says "Problem with paragraph tag" so try this in your CSS p { display: inline; } It will remove the line breaks that the <p> tag has and maybe fixes the problem.

haku Posted April 21, 2012 Share Posted April 21, 2012 That's not the best idea - it will remove all line breaks from the p tags, and run all text together into one long sentence. If it's a p tag causing the problem, the top and bottom margins should be changed to padding. this will preserve the line breaks as well as the vertical spacing, but remove the gap in the borders.
