Spaces in FOOTERGUIDE HTML causing problems

[sametch]

I am trying to create a custom navigation bar along the top of the page. It uses a table cell with a background image and individual buttons. The cell height , the background image and the buttons are all set to the same height (24px). when actinic generates the page, the cell height in reality becomes around 2 pixels too big and introduces a white line I do not want.

I have tracked the problem down and it is caused by spaces in the HTML code between the individual buttons. Typically there is a space between each </a> and the next <a> (e.g ...</a> <a href="....>.

If i take the uploaded index.html file and edit out the spaces, the problem goes away.

Is there any way I can get to the source of the FOOTERGUIDE code and get rid of these unwanted spaces?

Note I have tried the compressed HTML option and also tried replacing FOOTERGUIDE with individual button NETQUOTEVARS. Neither of these work!

:(

Hi there,

Could you please check the following, goto Advance | Template Manager | Main and check 'NavItem' and 'NavImage' templates. Please check for any additional spaces as these templates are associated with the FOOTERGUIDE template.

Please remove any unneccessary space.

hope this helps.
