I am trying to control my layout design by using the line break and p tags between divs. Using 2 paragraph tags (<p></p><p></p>) creates too much of a gap and <br/> too little of a gap. How can I better control the spacing of my divs?

 

Thanks

You should use CSS then you can get the exact amount of space you want.

 

<div class="myClass">
<p>This is my content</p>
</div>
<div class="myClass">
<p>This is some more content</p>
</p>

 

And the CSS:

 

.myClass {
margin-bottom: 20px;
}

you can use a bottom padding or margin on <p>.

 

so in your css, add...

 

p {margin-bottom: 1em}; or whatever you want it to be

 

 

that overides the browser default paragraph margin, which is what is determining the spacing between paragraphs at the minute.

I think you may want to use the margin css property since it control the space around certain objects.
