I have some labels aligned horizontically with textboxes and dropdown lists. A gap appears between the dropdowns and the textboxes. If I inspect element it shows me the css file of the portal which does not include information of what is causing the gap/vertical space which I would like to reduce. What I want is to override those settings on the module level.
On the screenshot, I highlight the style with the 'web developer' tool on firefox. The gap between the dropdown list appears.
<div class="ColOne">
<asp:Label ID="lblCategory" runat="server" Text="Category" CssClass="labelStyle" style="position: relative"></asp:Label>
</div>
<div >
<asp:DropDownList ID="ddlCategory" runat="server" DataSourceID="sqlCategories" DataTextField="Name" DataValueField="CategoryID" AutoPostBack="True"></asp:DropDownList>
</div>
<div class="ColOne">
<asp:Label ID="lblSubCategory" runat="server" Text="Sub Category" CssClass="labelStyle"></asp:Label>
</div>
<div >
<asp:DropDownList ID="ddlSubCategory" runat="server" DataSourceID="sqlSubCategory" DataTextField="Name" DataValueField="SubCategoryID"></asp:DropDownList>
</div>
My styles:
div.ColOne {
width: 150px;
float: left; /* to place the column next to the other*/
padding-left: 0px;
padding-top: 12px;
clear: none;
}
div.ColEmpty {
margin-top:0;
}
Clicking on the Display Style information I get the following:
