line height with <hr>

[Glenwf]

Is it possible to reduce the vertical space a <hr> takes when dividing sections of text?

Thanks in advance 'cause I know you can do it....

Well using styles you can control it by using the padding option

hr {
margin-bottom : -4px;
margin-top : -4px;
}


From playing around with it, it seems that if you're trying to get the text as close as possible to it, it stops at -4px. However if you want a bigger gap between the hr and the text that's no problem.

shorthand:

margin:-4px 0px -4px 0px;
