  I spent way too much time last night trying to get the extra white space out of my latest post searching FAQ and the forum and trying a couple things… http://homeschoolingwithguinever.wordpress.com/2007/05/09/my-kids-love-math-u-see-and-so-do-i/
  Before I start deleting html code(again)and mess it up, I thought I’d ask you for help. The following coding is what appears between the 2 things that I want to minimize the white space in my post. Anything I need to get rid of in this coding?

  </p>
  <p align=”left”> </p>
  <p align=”center”>

  Thanks for any help!

  I would get rid of this: it’s a paragraph break, essentially a line.
  <p align="left"> </p>

  Just delete it altogether.

  Thanks. Deleting the line you suggested and also adding header coding fixed my extra white space problem. One thing to note, however, is that when I pasted the html code into my question above, it originally contained ” ” in there. But I see that it disappeared.

  When posting code, put it between back ticks, these: `

  Otherwise the formatting goes wonky.
