    How do I remove gap between header & navbar?

    I've edited the navbar template to remove the line breaks, there are no line breaks in my header. Can I assume that what is causing the gap is spacer_open? If it is, how can I change it to set the gap to 0px? I've stumbled all over and can't seem to find an answer. Help!

      The spacer only affects the left and right margins and does not affect the top and bottom of the content at all.

      Check in your navbar template for
      Code:
      <br />

      and remove the <br /> there. The only other thing that could be affecting it, if this is not there, is some custom coding in your templates.

          Nope, not there. I'm using the default template with just color changes and my own header image.

          Header:

          Code:
          <!-- banner -->
<table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" align="center">
<tr>
<td><div align="center"><img src="images/misc/contest_banner.gif" alt="" width="600" height="100" border="0"></div>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
<!-- end banner -->

<!-- logo -->
<a name="top"></a>
<table border="0" width="$stylevar[outertablewidth]" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" align="center">
<tr>
<td width="520" height="124" style="background: url($stylevar[imgdir_misc]/head_logo_left.gif) no-repeat;"</td>

<td align="$stylevar[center]"><a href="$vboptions[forumhome].php$session[sessionurl_q]"><img src="$stylevar[titleimage]" border="0" alt="$vboptions[bbtitle]" /></a></td>
</tr>
</table>
<!-- /logo -->

<!-- content table -->
$spacer_open

$_phpinclude_output
          Navbar:

          Code:
          <script type="text/javascript">
<!--
function log_out()
{
    ht = document.getElementsByTagName("html");
    ht[0].style.filter = "progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.BasicImage(grayscale=1)";
    if (confirm('$vbphrase[sure_you_want_to_log_out]'))
    {
        return true;
    }
    else
    {
        ht[0].style.filter = "";
        return false;
    }
}
//-->

              Fixed it. When I made my header, it was innitially going to be 124px high. I then changed it to 107 and didn't change the table in the header. Doh!

                  I am having the same problem, well annoyance. Below is the code from mine.

                  PHP Code:
                  <!-- logo -->

                      <                  td align="$stylevar[left]"><a href="$vbpoptions[portalhome]"><img src="$stylevar[titleimage]" border="0" alt="$vboptions[bbtitle]" /></a></td>
                      <                  td align="$stylevar[right]">$headbanner
                                            &nbsp;
                  <!--

                  <!--                   content table -->
                  $spacer_open

                  $_phpinclude_output 
                  Comparing your formatting to mine, i have the width height in there?
