Hi,

This might sound like a simple problem but how do I get text to look like this on a page instead of having a gap between each new line?

Also how do I stop the text when typing from pushing out the borders? How do I contain it in one fixed box, again like in the link above?

Thanks for reading

I'm using Dreamweaver MX.

The easiest way to contain your text within set limits is to use fixed width tables - - You can either set your tables to a fixed number of pixels wide (which will make your page appear exactly the same width on all monitors - in other words your page will have more or less white space depending upon the user's browser settings) or you can set your table to a set percentage of the desktop (which will allow your table to stretch or shrink as required to fit the percentage of real estate available on the desktop).

This table is set to a fixed width - - It appears correctly on a desktop that is 1024 x 768 pixels wide but if the desktop is resized to 800 x 600 pixels the user is required to scroll to the right to read the information bars on the right side of the page.

To get rid of the gap between each new line add some styles to your paragraphs. You can do this with a style sheet or on each individual tag. The example below uses a P tag:

<p align="left" style="word-spacing: 0; line-height: 100%; margin-top: 0; margin-bottom: 0">
