no empty line after <UL>

[Timo Nentwig]

Hi!

Is it possible that there's no empty line inserted after an <UL>?

If you can dream it, a browser can do it.

ul { margin-bottom: 0; }

Gee, how poetic. :-)

I rather suspect that applies to the margin at the end of the list,
not the margin at the end of the opening <ul> tag.

To prevent a blank line after the (invisible) <ul> tag, I bet you
need
li { margin-top: 0 }

But I haven't actually tried this.

There is no margin at the end the ul opening tag, if that means the same
spot as the beginning of the first <li>. Nor do li's have vertical margins
by default in the browsers I know, or lists would grow long very quickly.
The line I gave earlier, ul { margin-bottom: 0; }, suffices.
Let's keep the Usenet noise to a minimum.

Yes there are. Opera 7.23 renders lists with an appx 1em top margin and no
bottom margin. IE6 and Mozilla 1.6 both put appx 1em margins on top and
bottom.

It's unclear whether OP wanted margins at all, and precisely where - this
extra information might or might not be useful to him. But, as top and
bottom margins collapse, to eliminate a blank space from between adjacent
lists both top and bottom margins must be zeroed out.
