AO3 Work Skins

[cottonballzofdeath]

Hello all,

I'm writing a work skin for a story I'm going to post in AO3. For the most part, it seems to working fine, but one of the problems I'm having is that it puts items that are coded under a span html tag on separate lines. Everything looks fine when I'm publishing it in my browser, but when I preview the skin in AO3, everything with a span tag looks all wonky. Any suggestions on what I may be doing wrong and how I might be able to resolve this issue? I would really appreciate any input you might have to offer.

Thank you,

Cottonballz

I can't say for certain without seeing the code, but you might want to check any margin or padding elements you have in your style sheet and make sure they're not being inherited by your span selectors.

OP, Here-Thank you for the Response

Thanks for the reply! I defined the margins and padding for all of the elements and the issue mostly went away. After playing with the html for awhile I realized that the rest of my problems were being caused by <

> tags being added b/c of the way I formatted my html. I went back and fixed that and now everything looks nice and pretty.

Thank you!!!

Oh, yay! I'm glad that I was able to help, though it's better news that you were able to figure out the rest where my advice ended. Good luck with your story!
