E-mails: excess vertical spacing

When I send an e-mail (Hotmail) through Firefox that I have created and pasted from MS Word, it looks just fine on the e-mail ready-to-send screen but after it is sent and I check it in sent mail, there appears triple or quadruple spacing between paragraphs (even though the document in Word (and on the to-be-sent screen) was single-spaced with only double spacing between paragraphs.
How can I eliminate the excess spacing?
Thanks.

If you paste HTML code then you can check the source code to see what exactly is pasted. Word may be adding extra <nowiki><P></nowiki> tags or other code that is causing it.

Vertical spacing out of wack in IE, but perfect in Safari?

I have newbie question about vertical spacing in the frame
based design of the site I am working on. I did not design the
website but I was just asked to take over the basic updating and
maintenance of the content.
www.brainoptimization.com
When I view my site in IE or Safari for Windows it looks just
the way it is supposed to.
But when viewed in Internet Explorer for windows the vertical
spacing in the left column (as well as the spacing between the
first 5 paragraps in the right column) is completely out of whack!
IE for win puts huge chucks of space between the cells where none
was put. Any idea what is going on and how I can correct this
issue? I am using Dreamweaver 8 on a mac. Any help would be
appreciated. Thank you.
Cheers.

Not sure how that page would look perfect in any browser
truthfully :-)
In Firefox there are huge pages in the left column. That
mosaic picture is
about halfway down the page. The styling of the paragraphs is
all over the
place because nearly every paragraph on the page has a new
style applied to
it. From the code I can see well over 100 'styles' ....
someone has really
overdone the use of creating new styles - or using the
property inspector to
create new styles for each paragaph. There are numerous empty
cells with
the table structure, many colspans etc., that make for a very
fragile page
indeed - hence the reason for it not working cross
browser/platform.
In all honesty, I would start over - it looks like a simple 2
column
structure and shouldn't be a problem with getting it to
display correctly in
*every* browser :) Sorry for the bad news.
One thing you can try first off at least (I haven't looked at
the code too
much after seeing all those styles)., place the mouse cursor
into the left
column and in the property inspector set the vertical
alignment to 'top'.,
maybe that will move the contents of that left column to the
top rather than
half way down the page... may or may not work - depending on
whether those
colspans get in the way.

Vertical Spacing

I have experiencing irregularities with the vertical spacing
of images in different browsers. I am working on an iMac 10.4.11.
The site looks as I intended it to read while in Safari, but when
opened in Firefox the text-based navigation bar which runs along
the body copy grows along with the body copy - the spacing adjusts
itself to the length of the body copy.
Do I need to rebuild my pages? (please, say no!) or is there
code to keep the text from spacing out?
Here is the site:
http://www.banksems.com/BankSems2008/index.html
The Contact Me page is the only page which represents what it
was designed to look like. All of the other pages contain incorrect
spacing.
Thanks for any input!

Hello,
Take a look at this link, specifically the example under
"Table 3":
http://apptools.com/rants/spans.php
All of your text is in a cell that you made by merging 13
rows in that
column.
All of your links are in the unmerged part of the 13 rows in
a following
column.
When the one merged cell with all the text gets taller, the
top unmerged row
in the following column stays at the top of the merged cell
and the bottom
row stays with the bottom of the merged cell.
The rows between are spaced out.
You don't see this on the "Contact" page because the text in
the merged cell
is not as tall as the 11 rows in the next column, so it
doesn't spread them
apart.
To avoid this, you can use a simple table with 1 row and 2
columns.
In the first column, insert all your text.
In the second column, insert another table with the number of
rows equal to
your number of links. This is a "nested" table. Give the cell
this nested
table is in a valign:top, and the table with all your links
in it will stay
at the top of the column. Because the rows in this nested
table aren't
"connected" to any merged rows, they won't space down the
page.
Here's an example using tables:

How to reduce vertical spacing in repeating frame? - SOLVED

My problem is that space between repeating frame and fields inside this frame cannot be smallest then 1.1mm (1/25 of inch). This crete aditional vertical spacing 2mm per one row. It is not possible move field near frame border.
Report Builder 10.1.2.0.2. Snap on grid is OFF. Vertical spacing is zero. ConfinMode On. FlexMode Off.

Not sure why this is not working for you. Your paper layout is wysiwyg for the most part. I would put snap to grid ON and make sure there is no space between my frame and the fields inside it. You can can zoom in to make sure there is no space. <b>You may have to resize your field to get the field to snap to the grid before you try and move it up against the frame.</b> You just have to keep playing with snapping to the grid until everything fits. I would recommend not turning off snap to grid until you are really comfortable with Oracle Reports.

What is up with my vertical spacing?

I can't figure out why my vertical spacing in my left side column is off. No matter what I do, all the elements want to spread themselves and I want them to be towards the top. I'd appreciate it if someone could look at this site for me and maybe offer some insight as to what I'm doing wrong here. The URL is http://www.agrabest.com. The index page is not as much of a problem as the subsequent pages, simply because of the page length, I believe. Thanks so much for any help!

I have recreted a table for you that contains the content from you broccoli page as an example You do not need a table cell to cneter protions of an individual cell - you can use a di, in this case with a class="ctr", and add this to yoru css :
.ctr {
    text-align: center;
I have not attempted to do this precisely matching yorus. But it does let you see how to do this without nexting lots of tables or using lots of table cells:

Vertical spacing between paragraphs

Hello experts,
I am having trouble closing up the space between a title and
a subtitle that needs to have a different style. I am usingCSS.
Line spacing seems to work only on the vertical space between
lines within a paragraph, not between paragraphs. This makes sense.
I have tried putting each element in its own table cell, each
with its own id, and playing with positive and negative margins and
padding. If there is a combination that would work, I would be glad
to hear it. At the moment my knowledge of margins and padding is
based almost totally on trial and error, not on comprehension.
My current work around is to keep the subtitle in the same
paragraph, put in a line break, and the style the subtitle. That
has given me a good result on my browser, but I'm not sure about
other browsers. Also, work arounds me nervous about creating other
problems I don't know about.
Can anyone give me the right solution, or at least critique
my work around solution?
Many thanks so much in advance for help.
Richard

p { margin:0; }

Mountain Lion Mail excessive CPU usage

Evers since upgrading to ML 10.8 and 10.8.1, Mail heats the CPU up to 100% after a couple of minutes and remains like this forever. Absolutely reproducible. Mail is unusable for me.
I have some 25.000 Mails in my Inbox. Sampling Mail always reveals the same pattern. Looks like Mail is constantly iterating over my 25.000 emails and tries to layout them. Looks crazy to me.
Here is an excerpt of the sample:

This problem was solved.
After a lot of frustration (restoring Lion backup and performing the update several times), I managed to have a stable installation without the problem of high CPU usage and high temperatures.
It seems that the installation procedure has an issue, when your user directories are located in an external disk. In this particular case, after the installation of the server software, the two links in /Network/Servers directory, pointing to the / directory, do not get created, so you need to do that manually.
That, in itself, was not causing my excessive CPU usage, but it didn't allow my users to log in the server. Thinking that this was the issue described in http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2938, I was running the command described in the previous link to fix the issue. That command (sso_util configure -r REALM_NAME -a diradmin afp) was what was killing my CPU.
All is well, when it ends well, I guess.

Use 40 black 1 pixel x 400 pixel vertical lines, and create an experimental composition using varying vertical spacing?

Ive been pulling my hair out on how to do this all day and im getting no where i dont even know where to begin! Please help if anyone knows how to do this.

enforcer4u,
she said posting here if help was needed was a good idea...
This is Classroom in a forum.
I believe the first line should have read Use 40 black 1 pixel x 400 pixel vertical lines, and create an experimental composition using varying vertical > horizontal spacing.
One way (she may be following this thread, you know) would be to:
1) create a horizontal/vertical (composition Three/Four) line with the Pen Tool with a length corresponding to the whole composition and two or more Anchor Points, ShiftClickDragging at each with different lengths of the Handles;
2) Create a vertical/horizontal line by ClickDragging with the Line Tool (or just Click with the Line Tool and set the Length and direction, then move a copy (ShiftAlt/OptionDrag the original, start dragging a tiny bit before you press the keys);
3) Object>Blend>Blend Options, set Spacing to Specified Steps, 38 steps;
4) Select the lines from 2) and Object>Blend>Make;
5) Select both the Blend from 4) and the line from 1) and Object>Blend>Replace Spine.
Other ways include creating the first line and then ShiftAlt/OptionDragging to create the other lines up/down/left/right depending on composition, or creating or all the lines (maybe using the blend) and then ShiftClickDragging individual lines.

Mac Mail Signatures show up as double spaced in GMail, but if I type out the same text it's fine. If I send to myself and look at it with Mobile Me's online viewer, it's fine too. What's the deal?

Carolyn: Thank you for the reply, however neither deselecting nor selecting that option has any effect on the location of the signature. In both cases it will appear at the end of the string of emails.
This is a time consuming annoyance - it would seem to be an easy thing to program that the signature lands wherever at the location of the cursor???

Vertical spacing spry menu bar

I have a Spry vertical menu bar-CS3. What spry menu bar rule do i change to increase vertical space between items? And what property do I make the adjustment in? Thanks. I messed up the default spacing some how and am not sure how get back to default which provided more vertical space between items.
Thanks. Donna

Vertical spacing bug in IE?

I'm having a rendering problem I can't track down in my code,
and it
shows up in IE7 but not Firefox. I'm getting extra vertical
space on
some <p>s that are nested within a few divs and tds;
I'm thinking that
it's extra top or bottom margin or padding. The <p>s
are affected by
various selectors, including id and class selectors, as well
as
descendant and sequential selectors.
Are there any known IE7 bugs that might be causing my
problem?
Thanks!
-Kim

I'm not an code expert. But what I do is look at the code
carefuly of an area that works and compare it to one that doesn't.
Some times DW positions the <class> or <span>
attributes in a different order. Its both irritating and time
consuming but it can make a difference in the way it shows up on
the browser.

Splitting the message list and Mail view - vertically

Returning from the dark side of PC land. Getting used to Mac Mail. How can I organise the view such that my inbox list of mail is on the LHS of the screen and the selected mail displayed on the RHS. when viewed on the widescreen this seems the obvious configuration....
Don't make me hanker for Outlook.

Unfortunately, since Lion, this is not possible in the weay you desire. I have tried, and searched the forums to no avail. I'm sure many have called in and submitted feedback about this issue, but 3 Lion updates later, and the new Mountain Lion OS, have not changed this behavior in Apple Mail.
If you change the font and/or font size, you will not see any change in the new Lion layout. Within the message you are viewing, changing the size of the message font, only makes changes to the "To/From" portion of the header, and not the message itself. Please understand this is if you have Apple Mail set to be viewed in the default Lion layout. If you open Preferences>Viewing, and check "Use classic layout", then you can see all changes to it. Still, it will affect both viewing and composing. There does not seem to be a way to isolate them.

OS X Mail - excess data usage

I have been struggling with extreme data usage - approaching the 300GB/mo Comcast allotment. I do not stream HD content or play multi-player games, etc, the normal drivers of high data usage. Other investigation of Wi-Fi looking for pirates, etc show no unexpected devices using my modem/router. I closed the router firewall to bittorrent, kazaa, etc. I finally noticed in the Network tab of the Activity Monitor that Mail was the highest consumer of inbound data, to the tune of 250 KB/sec, which can pile up a GB pretty fast! Restarting Mail clears the problem. I finally was watching the monitor while moving through mail messages and when I hit an HTML message with several images, there was a long pause trying to display the message content and eventually just broken images displayed - and usage went to the ~250 KB/sec level! Going to another message and returning to the "trigger" message showed the images fine, so they HAD been downloaded/cached, but perhaps Mail doesn't know it and is in a retry loop? Usage stays at this level until Mail is restarted, then all is well, even when going back to the trigger message (as expected due to caching).
This is occurring on an iMac running Yosemite, but I have NOT observed the same behavior (yet?) on MacBook running Yosemite with same Mail config. My usage has been high for several months, but I had not investigated until recently. I had been using Postbox as my mail agent since Mavericks due to the IMAP issues with Gmail. Since Yosemite seems to have solved that I switched back to Mac Mail. A Comcast level 2 agent said he had heard of some data-loop issue with Mailplane - another Gmail client app for OS X. Since I do not/had not used Mailplane, I discounted that cause, but it eventually made me wonder and now this issue has surfaced. Current Mail config has 1 iCloud, 1 Exchange, 3 IMAP Gmail and 1 IMAP Comcast accounts defined. The trigger message was in a Gmail account, so is that the common denominator??
Is anyone else seeing this behavior? Any ideas for a solution?

The iOS view vs classic view in Mail is not the problem; I've already configured for classic view.
Mountain Lion itself is.
My short list (to date) of crappy Mountain Lion behavior; items marked with a double asterisk (**)represent the worst of Mountain Lion for me.
** No up/down arrows in scroll bar slider;
Expose` not as easy to navigate as in Snow Leopard;
Mail does not request passwords for either receive or send;
No "Save Draft" icon in Mail compose window (workaround: use command-s);
"Save As" selection missing in most app menus;
No separate Search window in Safari (workaround: use Firefox or Opera);
** Can't export Mail from Mountain Lion into Snow Leopard if downgrading (I compiled this list before I stumbled on the method in this thread, but I'd prefer to effect this with Unix symbolic links);
iWork 09 seems to have "circled the wagons" re compatibility with MS Office or LibreOffice (workaround: just use Libreoffice);

Leading & Vertical Spacing Problem

Here's one for you.
I have a 77 page document I'm working on. Let's say you have two text frames next to each other, positioned exactly the same, vertically. They're aligned like two columns.
Font family, point size and leading are the same in both text frames. Exactly the same! Text and paragraph styles are in use, and one paragraph style is a bulleted list. The bullet is a Zapf Dingbat.
However, I have the hardest time getting text in both columns to line up, vertically. I can't figure out why and I'm struggling to adjust the leading between each line, and that isn't working very well.
I cannot see why these two text frames, with the exact same type characteristics, won't line up . Hard returns are used between each line.
What am I missing? I can create a new document with the same layout (two text frames) and I can get the text to line up perfectly, vertically.
Any suggestions?

Thank you, Peter and Willi.
I went through every page carefully and realize that were some incorrect Paragraph Styles applied to text, that do indeed have 9px of Space After applied. It was driving me crazy and I assumed my character or paragraph styles were applied correctly.
Look for the + sign after the Paragraph Style or check every bit of text to make sure the correct style is applied.
Thanks again.

Blank vertical spacing too large

In the process of creating a website and unable to shorten
the gap between an h2 and new line. Can someone please advise. To
see what I'm talking about:
http://www.waynebsmithinc.com/barge/index.html.
I want the bulleted text directly under the headings, without the
large gap. Can this be done and if so, how? Thanks,

Your h2 has a bottom margin of 20 px, your ul has a top
margin of 16px. Set
the ul top margin to 0 and then reduce the h2 bottom margin
as needed.
