Wonky template

Question

Hello everyone,
I've created a template in Photoshop, sliced it, and saved
for web. When I open the .html file in Dreamweaver everything looks
good. Then I create a div tag over the whole template (height: 100%
width: 100%). Now my design has 4 content boxes within the main
page. I click on the main section, delete the content box image,
then create another div tag within that section, I set the
background to the deleted image and I set the box size to the size
of the image. Now I guess there are a couple issue I have. When I
enter text into the box I don't want the text right up against the
left side of the box or the top. I've tried padding and also
margins, but when I do that, the whole template ends up with gaps
that I can't seem to fix. Now I've watched 5 or 6 tut videos on how
to do this, but none of them seem to have the same issue I am. Also
after I type a line of text and hit enter, it double spaces the
lines.
If anyone could help me out with this, it would be greatly
appreciated.
Thanks

It's impossible to follow your narrative without looking at
the page. Can
you post a link to it? I'll just say that you have gotten off
on the wrong
foot using PS to write your HTML, though. Such HTML is not
suitable for
anything other than prototype work.
