Hi

I want to show some images in a webpage; If I create a menu, I need to set an article for that; however, I don't like to show any article in this page; at the moment, I have created an empty article and set it to a menu; I can place my rotating image gallery in this page, but there is one thing that I don't want, and that is the white space in the middle of the page; in fact, this white space is the empty article that I have assigned to this menu. How can I get rid of this white space? in other words, how can I create a blank page?

by blank page I do not mean a completely blank page; I do want to show the sidebar, navigation bar, and the logo. I just don't want the blank article to be displayed.

your help is appreciated.

Hi,

Try to add a div with some fixed height using CSS styles.

like : <div style="widht:100%; height:500px; background: #fff;">&nbsp;</div>

Hope this may help you.
 
Thanks & Regards

hi
do you mean that I should add this div inside the article? if not, then where else should I add it?
In addition, doesn't this code create a white div whose height is 500px and take the whole width of its parent. Thus, this will create a white space, and this is exactly what I am escaping from.

You'll probably find more help on forum.joomla.org.

It seems like you have a rotating image gallery module is that correct? If so, just use {loadposition "Position Name of Your Gallery Module"} in the body of your article and the article will display the module and not the white space.

Good luck
