Positioning CSS Vertical List

I am playing with a list that has a graphic then a series of list items followed by a graphic and then a series of list items, etc.

I am getting white space between the bottom of the list and the next graphic. Precise positioning these items in Freeway so far seems to be a bit of trial and error. In other words> position a graphic>position a list>view result, because what I see on the document is not what I see in the browser. I have a feeling I am overlooking something relative to actual positioning, so thought I would ask?

So why not just create a table 1 column X 17 rows and insert your stuff into the cells

If you want white space between the different sections then add white spacer cells in there

Or, put all your lists inside another html item that is set to shrink to fit content?

Yeah, take a look at this file:

You don’t need to use Transition FX on them but if you set the menus
up in the same way then you should get the result you’re after.

Ok, so I like the Scriptaculous menu which gets me close, but several questions.
Looking at the sample, how do I get the various CSS lists to come closer together. I must be missing something on the sizing issue still.
I assume there is no way to get “Financial Aid/Enrollment” to fit, so my best solution seems to be to shorten that tile.

I got it to work. Basically I put it graphic in it’s own html box. Then each html list is separate. Then all of them are inserted as inflow items into on single box and all set to float left. With the height set to shrink to fit I get no gaps.

Once I correctly inserted the items into a single box and set the height shrink to fit, it did in fact work as you suggested it would.
Thank you
