I am typing directly into dreamweaver, when I write a headline, and then text under it, it is very spaced out and looks very awkward on the web. is there a way I can change the spacing between text so that it is closer together?
Either the headline or the text under it has default margins and padding that are creating that spacing. Create CSS styles for your headings and the text under it and set the margins and padding to zero and then add spacing as necessary.
Also, if you're hitting 'return' between lines, the p style default puts a 'double space' between lines. If you hold shift-return, it creates a line break which makes it single spaced.
