Just want a simple blank break between two modules, how?

[Vital Signs]

Hello, I know very little about coding to say first off ;)

But I have two modules and would like to separate only those two modules a little further apart. Is there any way to make perhaps a blank module that I can place in between the two and have it there but have it invisible so I just get the space?

If it's a complicated route please no need to bother responding "just change your CSS attributes so the flux capacitor reads it on the back-end, upload new waypoints to your infrastructure and you're done" .... :confused:

I know BB Code .... that's about it ;)

Thanks if there is a simple way!!!!

Which modules are you trying to add the space between?

Well I was possibly thinking if I could have a new module and make it blank, so in the final layout it just gives me a break in VERTICAL space between 1 module and the next without affecting the module spacing for all modules.

I did this, but it's not very elegant. I created a BB module that has a single period (dot) in it. Since the period is a font that can be colored, I colored it to look like my background. I set the "Use Module Wrapper Template" to "no." Now if I want to separate a couple of modules, I insert the blank.

If you want to see this in action, go to www.clamtalk.org. The blank is below my navbar section and above the "Herschel Snodgrass Comic" image. You can right click on the background to select all objects so you can see the period.

I'm sure there's a better way to do this, but as a graphic artist and not a coder it's easier for me to come up with a graphic solution.

haha, I am the same way! I am a graphic designer and not a coder so that sounds like a solution I would come up with as well ;)

Nice :)

EDIT: Thanks I tried it and it worked perfect! Easy solution, seen here; www.blackwaterops.net, above and below the slideshow. THANKS!

Graphic artists, unite! :)

Oh, I just realized, if you change the period to " " then it is the equivalent to a HTML Space/Invisible character. Then you truly get just a space only, check it out now @ www.blackwaterops.net, we are using 3 of these now.

Thanks for the start :)

Good call on that. Best wishes with your forum.
