Text question.... 2

[endodayz]

How do I get the spacing between text in Dreamweaver 4 to shorten?

Example: I type in a sentance and hit return, it gives me a dbl space. I want to make it a single space. I have had this problem since I started with Dreamweaver and have adjusted my sites around this dbl spacing.

I know this is a rookie qustion, can someone help a rookie out?

Thank You in advance,

Endodayz

Control Enter for <br> Single
Enter for <p> Double Ranjan

I tried the ctrl enter and the dbl space looks the same. Here is an example URL of what I am trying to accomplish.

This is your code
<p><b><font size=&quot;7&quot; color=&quot;#FF0000&quot;>The Rebel Yell</font></b></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><b><font color=&quot;#FFFFFF&quot; size=&quot;4&quot;>Site will be online soon.</font></b></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p align=&quot;left&quot;>This is the space I get when I hit Return:</p>
<p align=&quot;left&quot;>I would like to shorten this gap 1/2 the diistance.</p>
<p align=&quot;left&quot;>This is what I get when I use Ctrl + return</p>
<p align=&quot;left&quot;>The same gap.</p>
<p align=&quot;left&quot;>:-o</p>
<p align=&quot;left&quot;>Thank you for your help.</p>

your code should be

<p>hi the line below will have a double space because it uses p</p>

<p>see !! DOUBLE. but now the line below will have single space because i use br<br>
see !!! SINGLE</p>

<p>Got it !! well i use p here so its....</p> Ranjan

OK I think I got it. So I have to go in and edit the HTML? seems like a lot of work just for single spaced lines. Wish there were a shortcut.

No with a p in Dreamweaver control enter should work to give a br Ranjan

Hi, excuse me if this has already be mentioned, because I just scanned the thread. Anyhow, if you want a single line break (using a PC) hit SHIFT & ENTER. Hope this helps.

Daniel,

That is it SHIFT + ENTER. I am on a PC. I should have mentioned that in my first question.

Thanks a bunch,

sorry it should have been shift enter instead of control enter Ranjan
