Hey guys. Art blogger here.

I'm trying to fix this bug on my page, and for whatever reason, I can't quite find the correct HTML code to edit to fix. Perhaps someone here could help?

The above link goes to my blog, and the below code is what my blog HTML looks like.

Not that I think I can help (with Tumblrese), but what is it you want to fix?

Alas, no. That's what your Tumblr template looks like and that's what we don't know anything about. We are rather good with HTML though. wink.gif

Oh, jeez I forgot to state my problem. My mistakes.

Well, the 'ask' link is spaced way too far from my 'twitter' link.

And, hrm, that's odd then.. when I click on the 'Customize Theme' tab, there is an option for 'Edit HTML', and that above code is what shows up.

Yeah, there's HTML and there's CSS and there's JavaScript, but there's also Tumblr's proprietary templating language. Everything within curly braces that isn't CSS, like the below. We have no idea what those things do.

CODE

{block:IfEndlessScrolling}
{block:IndexPage}


A lot of things that are in your page aren't in the template. If you for instance search for your menu items, for example "school work", they aren't there. The software running on Tumblr's server parses this template and acts on the embedded instructions, most often probably just replaces them with a bunch of HTML, text and images that you have entered elsewhere, and spits out innumerous pages based on this. There's nothing odd about this per se. These forum pages are generated in a similar way, but the forum software uses a known programming language, PHP. Tumblr uses its own language.

Now, if you go to your page and View Source from your browser, you can see the markup for the generated HTML page. If you look at the menu you have this.


CODE

  &bull; <a href="/schoolwork">school work</a><br/>&bull; <a href="/twitter">twitter</a><br/>

        <br/><br/>

    

    &bull; <a href="/ask">ask</a><br/>



See? Between the "school work" link and the "twitter" one there's one BR tag. Between the "twitter" one and the "ask" one there are three. There's your extra space. No problem if this had been a static page. But to find what in the template that causes the two extra BR tags is a little harder. Maybe you can just delete the menu and enter the links again and try not to do whatever you did the first time that made this happen?
