Controling Margins around <hr> Element

Can you controll it in HR? and in common text?

[silverbytes]

I wonder how to reduce the vertical space caused by the tag HR. Is there any way to set the distance of next object placed in to the horizontal rule?

Also what excactly sets the vertical space between text lines in .css?

[TGecho]

experiment with line-height, margin-top, and margin-bottom.

I did unsuccessfullyl
line height does not control space... just height.

Anyone?

[silverbytes]

padding or margin doesnt't help.
Can you eliminate the vertical space between you horizontal rule and next element (let's assume is text).

any workaround?

hi there silverbytes,

Here are two work-a-rounds...

(normal)This is the text<hr />This is more text<br /><br />
(1)........ This is the text<div style="border-top: solid 2px #bbbbbb;margin:0;"></div>This is more text<br /><br />
(2)........ <div style="line-height:0.1">This is the text<hr >This is more text</div>

The second is the tightest that you can go.
