Getting rid of gap under ul with CSS

I'm rebuilding a site in Dreamweaver MX '04 with an imported
style sheet modeled on the ProjectSeven tutorial for 'fluid'
columns. I've been working on a template for the header, footer and
left-side nav bar (I will import the content pages from the legacy
framed site) and I'm stuck on one detail. No matter how I set
margins I can't get rid of a gap between the ul menu and the
graphics that will go directly beneath that menu in the left-hand
(nav) column. I tried putting the graphic items in their own /div
within the navbar /div and I tried without, but it doesn't seem to
make a difference in either IEx or Firefox. I'm sure there's
something I'm overlooking that's probably pretty obvious, but I
just can't seem to see it for all the trees in the way.



I could use an absolute position for the graphics, but the
number of li's in the ul is going to change a lot over the next few
weeks and since this is a template page for the entire site I would
much rather have the graphic items position themselves dynamically
under the ul object. I just don't want the space between the two.

and share with me what I'm missing. I could definitely use the

I'm presuming you want that background image to butt up right
under the

buttons, I'd probably set the background image on the
#sidebar instead so

that it sits under the buttons and extends downwards....

It's caused by the margin on the paragraph which wraps the
images. Add

this to your CSS and you should be OK:



#crslogophoto p {

margin : 0 ;

}

Thank you, Joe. Definitely too many trees. Looks great now
(at least my opinion...)



Nadia: I actually had the graphic in #sidebar at the
beginning but the portion hidden behind the buttons forced me to
repeat the graphic, creating a 'seam' that I didn't care for, which
was why I created the /div within the /div, but thanks also.



Ody.
