Vertical spacing between paragraphs

Question

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; }
Sorry it was so verbose.
