Posting HTML Table into Thread

[Ada]

Could anyone help please.........

I have made an HTML table that I want to post on my quiz thread.
Problem.....
When I paste the table data onto the thread, it appears OK , but there is a huge gap between any ordinary text I have typed and the actual table when I view the finished thread.
When I edit the thread, all text & html code appears OK, ie no gaps between typed text & HTML table.

Have tried pasting whole thread (text + html table file) from notepad ........same result.

Any ideas as to how I reduce/eliminate the blank space between typed text & the area where the HTML table appears, to make the thread look anywhere near professional?

Never had this before Ada I don't think.

Oh, hang on. How have you written your HTML? It needs to be a continuous string with no line breaks. So, replacing <> with () so you can see the code, you couldn't put up

"Welcome to Ada's comp

(table)
(tr)
(td width = "160")
(Eurovision Country)(/td)
(td width = "160")
(Artist)(/td)
(td width = "160")
(Song)(/td)(/tr)
...
(/table)

But you could put up:

"Welcome to Ada's comp

(table)(tr)(td width = "160")(Eurovision Country)(/td)(td width = "160")(Artist)(/td)(td width = "160")(Song)(/td)(/tr)...(/table)

That make any sense?

Cheers Mat,
Somehow I had managed to introduce a few (well, more than a few, actually) line breaks into my table's code.
Must have done it while tweaking & re-editing, I suppose.
Would never have checked that until you mentioned it.
Many thanks.
BTW I tried to give you some REP but was told to spread my REP about a bit before I can give you any more.
