    Hi all,

    I’m working on a page at the moment and i have some padding at the very top of the page that I am unable to find/remove.

    URL: https://www.grumpysgreen.com/fitzroy/

    Problem: Leaf images do not start at very top of the page, there is a gap between the top of the browser and the start of the image.

    Code in header.php

    </head>

<body>
<!--top logo-->
<div style="text-align:center;">
	<a href="<?php bloginfo('url'); ?>"><img src="<?php bloginfo('template_directory'); ?>/images/header.jpg" title="Grumpy's Green 125 Smith Street Fitzroy Victoria Australia" /></a>
</div>

    CSS:

    body
{
	background: #2b2b2b;
	font-size: 12px;
	color: #525252;
}

div.hr {
  height: 15px;
  /*background: #fff url(hr1.gif) no-repeat scroll center;*/
}
div.hr hr {
  /*display: none;*/
  	color:#860045;
  	text-align: center;
	background-color:#860045;
	width:60%;
	border:none;
	height:1px;
	display: block;
    margin-left: auto;
    margin-right: auto;
}

h2, a
{
	color: #525252;
}

pre, code {white-space: normal;}

  • Maybe you should try with divs with absolute positioning, I’ve never get my images at the top using only css…
    Hope it helps =)

    Try this. Add a padding zero and a margin zero to your body. 

    body
{
        background: #2b2b2b;
	font-size: 12px;
	color: #525252;
        padding: 0;
        margin: 0;
}
