That should work or if you need the link outside of the span try adding display:inline to the rightlink class. You are getting the extra spacing because the link is treated as a block element.

I have a strange spacing problem. I am using style sheets for my website. On my frontpage on the right column I have news summaries. If you look carefully you will see that the last line of the description is not evenly spaced comparing to the other lines above.

Here is the HTML:
-----------------
<span class="rightText">Jubilee Tech International Divests Management Consulting Unit</span>
Here is the CSS:
----------------
.rightText { font-family: Arial, Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 8pt; color: #000000; text-decoration: none }

Hi Experts:
In the event that the Asker does not respond, I would very much appreciate your opinions as to which Expert ought to receive points (if any) as a result of this question. Likewise, you can also suggest that I PAQ or delete the question.
Experts, please do not add further "answer" information to this question. I will be back in about one week to finalize this question.
Thank you everyone.

Rather than deleting this, since it contains excellent information, I'd recommend just moving this to the PAQ. If you choose not to award points, I can refund them to you. It is always a shame to lose excellent help by deletions. Sometimes the correct answer is that everything you wish to do in a specific way may just not be possible. Sometimes the correct answer is "it cannot be done" or "is not currently supported in that environment".
Listening further.
