it worked!! (shift return)

i guess my original idea of using separate cells for the nav was not good...

(or for xhtml) is the answer but you don't need that second table there, use rowspan instead

instead of using the tag - ie. pressing enter for a new line
try - which is SHIFT+ENTER to move down.

Change the cellspacing and cellpadding by numbers, Enter a number in place of the 0's. 1 is larger, 2 is larger than 1. It goes by pixels so the greater the number the more spacing you will have.

As busy says we really need to see what you are doing as it might or might not be something to do with DW, most probably the table structure is wrong somewhere

any chance of seeing your cource code? a url perhaps

i think sometimes the height of the cells in dreamweaver is defaulted to 19 unless you add a style to the text in it or the actual cell, i think anyway!

Busy,
I checked out your website (one of many i see) hoping i might be able to find the answer there.

I did not, but i did you see your side nav shares the same basic characteristics that i was looking for i tried to copy yours (i hope you see copying as a complement) by putting my list all in the same cell but that did not work the spacing is still huge, as if i have selected double spacing some where or some such. i am working on getting up as work in progress so all can see it.

thanks

Busy,
i just checked the padding and spacing as you suggested and they are both 0. Any other ideas?

thanks
