my professor wants us to create a web page, in said web page he said, "Make sure that each ingredient is displayed on its own line and indented as shown. Hint: Treat them as a block quote for the indenting." The attachment shows what I did with it, but I was wondering if there is a way to get rid of the spaces in between the items in the list while still using the blockquotes tag when viewed in IE.

Thank. stormy13!

I was going to suggest the poster use Notepad++ but I didn't really understand the gist of the question initially presented (still don't). :confused:

For coding in raw HTML, in my experience, Notepad++ is the best freeware available. :)

I looked at his code and loaded it into IE and FF. It did not render in either.

The mention of "spaces in between" was presented and I thought of the &nbsp qualifier, initially.

Thank you for clarifying, bigmck, as the original question, to me, was very vague.

I apologize for my ignorance therein.

I would personally put the ingredients list in a single blockquote as an unordered list (bullet points). You can always turn off the bullet point image, as well.

Edit: keep it simple, actually. No need for a list when there are not icons! Just have line breaks.

Yeah, use Notepad++
It's free, and it's amazing. Or if you can afford it, and you do a lot of coding, or are going to be doing a lot of coding and want a more powerful, easier-to-use editor, go with Adobe Dreamweaver, which is what I use.

But in regard to your question, instead of a blockquote or a br tag, if you want the formatting to look neater, go with a definition list.

Code: 
<dl>
 <dt>This would be your primary statement</dt>
      <dd>This would be the substatement</dd>
 <dt> This would be your second primary statement</dt>
      <dd>This would be your second substatement</dt>
 <dt>Item</dt>
      <dd>Item definition</dt>
 <dt>Coffee</dt>
      <dd>Black hot drink</dd>
 <dt>Milk</dt>
      <dd> white cold drink</dd>
</dl>

what u put as code is what i ended up doing with it after i looked it up

my professor is restricting us to only text editors for HTML, even though i do agree that dreamweaver is great for coding.
