Problems with a <ul> List within a table

[thesoundguy]

I know this will sound like a newbie question, but I have been troubleshooting and researching the web, and no luck...

The problem I am having is keeping a single itemed <ul> list to display the item without creating a blank space below(like a <br /> line). I use the attribute line-height in my css file and also include a height on the td cell containing the single itemed list. I have tried to set margins, paddings, and several other attempts. I simply put the output is as follows, minus the table and td cell info :

<ul><li>Single Item</li></ul>

Any help would be greatly appreciative, even if it is the simple little thing I have overlooked!

You should be able to control it by setting margins for ul and li.

In your CSS:

ul{margin: 0px 0px 0px 0px;}
li{margin: 0px 0px 0px 0px;}

The order of the margin values is: top, right, bottom, left

Or do you mean you are trying to get your list to appear all on one line?

If so then you might want this..

ul { 
  display: inline; 
  margin: 0; 
  padding: 0; 
} 
li { 
  display: inline; 
  padding: 0 0.5em; 
  border-left: 1px solid #000; 
} 

I like to markup my nav menu as a <ul> list of links and then use this code to put it on a horzintal line.
