CSS margin

GDB
How does one completely remove the space between inline elements with
CSS? I've set margin-left, margin-right, and border-width to 0px, yet
still there is a gap in all browsers I've tried (IE5-6, NS7, Safari).
The only way I seem to be able to achieve it is to set negative values,
but there must be a more 'correct' way.

URL?

Do you have any whitespace (including line breaks) between the
elements?

<span>...<span><span>...</span> should render with no space between,
but <span>...<span>
<span>...</span> will usually render with a space between, as if you
had used <span>...<span> <span>...</span>
