sorry! meant to just preview that... wrong button.

I've got an extra line in my page and I can't fugure out why. This is an &quot;add to cart&quot; button that's on a site I'm creating and on FrontPage (yes i know FP is evil but it was all i had) looking at it in normal view it shows it just fine but when i preview it, it shows me that stupid extra line right below the button. I have NO idea what it is but it's been plaguing me for literally MONTHS.

you can check out what i mean temporarily here:

and scroll down... its the &quot;add to cart&quot; buttons under the cars.

Thanks a lot, thsi one has really got me and I'm sure its something stupid that I'm not catching.

what extra line?

Known is handfull, Unknown is worldfull

 

[cyprus106]

right below the &quot;add to cart button&quot; in the cell. The cell is only supposed to be as high as the button is high but whenever i put in that <form> </form> code it adds extra blank space below the button that i can't get rid of

<tr valign='top'>

does this work?


Known is handfull, Unknown is worldfull

 

[cyprus106]

nope

Cyprus

 

[vbkris]

well doesnt it align all the contents at the same position... the extra line u see becuause the gif is bigger than the font...

Known is handfull, Unknown is worldfull

 

[vbkris]

hey i forgot... do u mean the space on tht top?

Known is handfull, Unknown is worldfull

 

[cyprus106]

I mean the big space under the button. like how the button is stuck against the top and there's a real big space below it. I don't want the real big space below it. Either that or I want it centered if that's possible but with all those hidden values I can never get it working. The add to cart button... when im designing it, it doesn't appear that way. but when i actually look at the page that big space appears.

[vbkris]

why not put each valu in different <td>s?

the problem as i said is with the text and image alignment...

Known is handfull, Unknown is worldfull

 

[cyprus106]

ok i kind of get what you're saying but the jpg is no bigger than the outsides of the green line. How do I fix the text/image alignment thing? i mwan if I can just get that button to be centered or SOMETHING to make it not look so messed up... ??

This will make your code a bit of a hassle to handle, but put all of the form code on one line with no linebreaks.

 

[cyprus106]

Just tried putting the code into one line. didn't work...

I can't figure it out! if anything if I could just have it centered or SOMETHING so it wouldnt look so blatantly bad!

[Genimuse]

Well, you should be able to put

valign="middle"

in your

<td>

tag at least.

 

[jemminger]

it's the <form> tag adding the line break.

to keep it from doing this, move it outside the <td> - i use this format with no line break problems:

<table>
<form>
<tr>
<td></td>
</tr>
</form>
</table>

Oh, yeah, I forgot about that. Yup, that should do the trick. Good call, jemminger.

Moving the <form> outside the <td> will mean that your page probably won't validate - which may cause you problems in the future. Try using css instead:
[tt]
<form style=&quot;margin:0&quot;>
[/tt]

[jemminger]

good point, Chris. i never thought about css with a form tag.
