Make white space between <p> and <ul> equal to font size
|

| namenotgivenhere 2005-12-07, 11:03 pm |
| My design goal is to make the white space above and below <p> and <ul> equal
to the height of my font. The first step to achieving this I believe is to
have an equal amount of white space above or below <p> and <ul>. Can someone
suggest a method using css to accomplish this? I have succeeded in doing
this in IE6 but I'd also like to know if there's a method to achive this
goal that will have a similar visual look in other modern browsers. TIA

p, ul { margin: 1em 0 }

Why don't you just try it and see how it works in your particular case?

One reason is that if someone has given the answer, I would now know
it instead of wondering what the answer was ;-)

You don't get it. Check it out for yourself in various browsers, or are
you trying to say you are lazy and want others to do it for you?

margin: 1em 0;
The left and right don't have to be specified, but the alternative is
margin-top:1em; margin-bottom:1em;
Its just easier to do:
margin: 1em 0;
If you just did:
margin: 1em;
That would make the left and right margins 1em too, and you probably
don't want that.

Newsgroups are much bigger than that. One person gets a question
answered, and thousands of future people can find the answer
instantly. None of us want to research a problem, find that someone's
asked the same question before - only to find the answer was something
like "check it out your lazy self."

So you are comfortable with others figuring it out for you? Your
problem is very minor and can be easily researched in a matter of
minutes on your own.
I stand by my lazy comment.

I'm very comfortable with that. Isn't that what Newsgroups are all
about? People who don't know, ask people who do, and the answers are
there forever for others to find? Long live Newsgroups. If people had
to work it out for themselves there's no point in Newsgroups. I fully
understand your point about people needing to be prepared to help
themselves though too, and not be totally lazy. It's a fine line at
times :-)

And of course the old:
Give a man a match and you warm him for a day.
Set a man on fire and you warm him for the rest of his life.
Any others? Anybody?
