    Thanks Charles.

    Is anyone else struggling with extra white space in Firefox compared with
    the same page in IE 6?

    I've found that an incorrectly specified DOCTYPE is causing the problem.
    Changing the DOCTYPE fixes the white space at the bottom of page in Firefox.
    When I copy the html page and change

    <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN">
    to
    <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN"
    "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd">

    the extra white space disappears. I can't see any way to manually edit the
    DOCTYPE in NOF 9. Is this possible?

    Also, fixing this adds extra padding inside table cells. Has anyone else
    struggled with this problem and found a workable solution. My site is approx
    350 pages.

    Hi Les,

    AFAIK there is no way to edit the DOCTYPE in NOF9.

    Default Extra white space in FireFox

    I'm using dynamic layout on a 350+ page website. Many of my pages show extra
    white space between page elements (such as table rows) and at the end of the
    page in Firefox compared with IE6. The longer the page, the worse the
    effect.



    Some of the worst affected pages are:



    http://www.businessperform.com/html/..._feedback.html

    http://www.businessperform.com/html/...ssessment.html

    http://www.businessperform.com/html/..._approach.html

    http://www.businessperform.com/html/...ram_roles.html

    http://www.businessperform.com/html/three_laws.html



    Is there some easy way to fix this without editing all of my pages?

    Leslie,

    Is it more prevalent around text where you are using heading tags, ie: H1,
    H2, etc ??

    Yes Chuck. In FF, there is less spacing under H1, H2, etc and less space
    between normal paragraphs. Check out this page

    http://www.businessperform.com/html/...anagement.html

    in IE 6 and FF. And check out the extra space in FF at the end of the page.

    in order to have FF and IE show the same, each text style used must have 0px
    below and 0px above set in style view

    P = 0px below and 0px
    H1 = 0px below and 0px
    H2 = 0px below and 0px
    H3 = 0px below and 0px
    H4 = 0px below and 0px
    H5 = 0px below and 0px
    H6 = 0px below and 0px
    OL = 0px below and 0px
    UL = 0px below and 0px

    after the above changes, when you need to create a line space, you need to
    hit enter twice instead of once
