A blank line at the top of my page Joy M 11-20-2007

Hello,

I am modifying an .asp file and I noticed that the top line on the screen is
blank. I would like to remove this line, and push everything up to the top
of the screen, but I don't know what is causing it to appear. Does any one
have any ideas of what to look for?

The code has <table><tr><td> tags. There are no <form> and no <p>. I hope
I have given you enough information, and thank you for your help.

Joy

No.
An URL to a test case would be most helpful.

No, you haven't, not even close.
You are welcome.

Most browsers leave a space that looks like a blank line at the top of
each page, akin to the blank space at the top of most printed pages.

You can remove it, or reduce it, but you'll have to use CSS for this.
See newsgroup comp.infosystems.www.authoring.stylesheets (CSS stands for
"Cascading Style Sheets")

Hi,

Thanks for your messages. I am working with 24 .asp programs that form a
website and there is only one program with the blank line at the top, so I
think something must be causing it to happen.

I was just wondering if there was any kind of JavaScript/VBScript/ASP or
HTML code that could produce a blank line. One thing I just realized I
could do is copy the program and then remove some code and gradually add it
back in, maybe then I could narrow down the code to find out what is causing
the blank line.

Anyone have any other suggestions?

Joy
