any way to make a smaller space than a <br> tag

    is there a way to make a smaller space than using a break tag. If you go my site ( in sig), you'll see an adsense link unit up top. I'd like to move it up a little bit but as of now i can't figure out how. I'm using a <br> tag to get the space, which seems too much, and no <br> tag is not enough. Anyway to do this?

    Remove <br> and add padding to that cell. For example:

    <td style="padding-top: 2px;">...</td>

    You could replace the <br /> with a <div style="height:1px;font-size:1px;">&nbsp;</div> - editing the height to wwhatever you want it to be.

    You can also style a <br> tag. If you use something like <br style="line-height:0px;" /> your line break will be much smaller. I have used this to fix IE CSS errors.

    If you can get it working, J.D.'s solution is probably the preferred method.

    You may try giving the <br /> a "line-height" property in CSS. Read here: developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/line-height

    Edit: Forget it, I just found the same solution further up. Rookie mistake - replying before reading all the entries. Sorry, won't happen again :)

    The break tag styling will work. But to be honest, it would be better to work with DIVs and use margin and padding for the required spacing.
