Huge gap above tables that I'm trying to insert into a self hosted site.

  • Absolutely baffled with the massive space above the table I am trying to insert into a self hosted website.

    The odd part of the problem is that I created a table with a pasted table … very basic table structure on another page in the same site and it works fine.

    The table on this page seems to work fine.

    Please help. I don’t know where to turn right now.

  • When I view the generated source of the page I still a whole whack of
    tags between the image and the table. I don’t know where those are coming from.

    Maybe check the page in html editor mode again, re-save and also disable all of your plugins?

    Thanks Christine. It appears that on the ‘Basketball 101’ page WordPress is adding in a </br> every time it sees a new row <tr> … meaning that the bigger the table the bigger the gap. Very puzzling and very frustrating.

    Ah, ok, then you might want to try and remove all of the breaks from the table.
    so something like this

    <table><tr><td></td></tr><tr><td></td></tr> etc..

    That should remove all of the breaks.

    I wish that would have worked. The code that appears when you view source in a browser shows the line breaks … when I open the html editor within the dashboard the code appears without the linebreaks. Has anyone faced the issues of wordpress adding unnecessary breaks to result in the gap above the table.
