Well, first off I'm new to site design and coding, and so far this is the best work I've done yet - www.DandyTrip.com

The home.html page is how I want it, minus content. When I start typing in both content areas, left and right, everything is fine untill I press enter for a new line. Once I do that, and upload the page, a gap appears between the sites content and navigation bar as you can see in the thoughts.html page.

I must be doing something wrong.

I designed the site in photoshop, sliced it in a header, five buttons, main content, side content, and footer.

I uploaded it to dreamweaver, center it, remove the content and side content images and replace it with divs(what ever that means).

Now I can type in the two new divs I've created. Except when ever I push enter or embed some video in it, it messes everything up and leaves a gap, as you can see on the thoughts.html page.

It's very frustrating.

If it helps, all I want to do is add content thats similiar to WordPress, a title date and info, though I found integrating wordpress into the layout much to complicated for me. So I just want to manually put information on there, and it's creating problems

Any ideas guys?

Any help would be greatly appreciated, thank you so very much.

May I ask what browser you see this issue in? I don't see the gap in Firefox 3.5.5 on Windows 7.

Are you using CSS? Are there heading and paragraph tags being used? Each of those have default margin and padding that may be pushing things away. Try setting them to zero to see if that makes a difference. Then you could always add some back depending on what you need.
