CSS - CT3 "adding" margin=0 when editing text

[dvatalaro]

Issue: when editing the text of a menu div (simple html, no javascript), CT3
sees fit to add a margin-bottom setting of zero. This is NOT wanted. Here's a
snippet of the before code:

<div class="topnav">
<p><a href="link.html">linkOne</a> :: <a href="link2.html">linkTwo</a> :: <a
href="link3.html">linkThree</a> :: <a href="articles/articles.html">Other
Articles</a> :: <a href="link4.html">linkFour</a></p>
</div>

Here's the referenced external CSS file code for "topnav":

.topnav { background-color: #ccf; border-style: solid; border-width: 1px 0px
1px 0px; border-color: #009 #009 }
.topnav p { color: #006; font-size: 11px; font-family: Verdana, Trebuchet,
Palatino; text-align: justify; margin: 5px 30px 5px 38px }


Here's what CT3 adds when I edit <i>only the text</i> within that DIV - it
adds a 0 margin bottom:

<div class="topnav">
<p style="margin-bottom: 0"><a href="link.html">linkOne</a> :: <a
href="link2.html">linkTwo</a> :: <a href="link3.html">linkThree</a> :: <a
href="articles/articles.html">Other Articles</a> :: <a
href="link4.html">linkFour</a> :: <a href="link5.html">linkFive</a></p>
</div>

Any reason why CT3 is doing this? Sorry, pages are internal so can't give
direct links. TIA.

Hi,
It might be worth checking you paragraph sapcing settings in the admin set
up.

One of the preferences is for either a 'single' spacing between paragraphs
or 'double'
If 'single' is selected then contribute adds the 'margin 0' to the
paragraph.
All you need to do is select 'double'
