I am a total newcomer to HTML and CSS. I was told that I should not use HTML tags because of deprecation. I'm having a great deal of difficulty achieving what I need to.
I am trying to create a rather simple text email in HTML. I am using <pre> to preserve whitespace and line feeds. The <pre> itself is causing unwanted linefeeds. I've googled for a solution and see that using either margin:0; or display:inline; should solve the problem but I cannot figure out how to implement that fix.
I have worked many, many hours on this but don't have much to show for it. I've tried many different approaches to solve this extra linefeed problem but can't find anything that will stop it. This is what I have so far, I don't know if the way I am doing this is dumb or not.
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<style>
pre.a {
font-family: arial;
font-size: 16px;
font-weight: normal;
color: blue;
margin: 0px;
}
pre.b {
font-family: Courier New;
font-size: 12px;
font-weight: normal;
color: black;
margin: 0px;
}
pre.blue {
font-family: Courier New;
font-size: 12px;
font-weight: normal;
color: blue;
margin: 0px;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<pre class="a">

I will very much appreciate any suggestions.
Thank you in advance.
I guess the OP means the margin browsers put around PRE. There are at least two PRE but the sample is cut off.
But that is taken care of properly in the CSS. I see no margins (if I complete the second PRE). So what is it you see, Old Timer 99?
Most important, whoever told you not to use HTML should have kept his silence. That's just plain poppycock. HTML away!
Or do you mean there is a line break between the two PRE elements? PRE is a block level element, so that would happen.
There is a CSS property called 'display'. With that you can make a block level element, like for instance P, inline and it will break the line no more. For some reason that has no effect on PRE. I haven't looked into this before, but it feels a little contradictory to try to do this.
I like the red color of the code in the first post. So readable...
Anyone here know member 'Sorokina19'? I've received private message about some sex with her... maybe Darin has her phone number...
It was some kind of pop-u window... it is not saved in my private messages...
So, she is the nun now? What church?
