# Optimize HTML Code changing menu layout

* I have a horizontal tab like menu at the top of a site I am working on. The tabs
have some white space between them (www.rejuven.co.uk).
* When I switch on **Optimize HTML Code** the white space is removed and the tabs
are rendered up against each other. This happens if I just use **Optimize HTML
Code** and leave the JS and CSS switched off (testing the options in isolation).
* I’ve looked at the page source and the .css looks the same with **Optimize HTML
Code** switched on and off.
* How to troubleshoot?

* can you upload a screenshot of your menu with and without AO HTML optimization(
e.g. on [http://imgur.com/](http://imgur.com/) or the public folder of your dropbox-
account) and post the URL’s to those images here alphageekuk?

* Hi Frank, even easier
* Live Site (no AO Options switched on) [http://www.rejuven.co.uk/](http://www.rejuven.co.uk/)
* Staging Site (only AO HTML switched on) [http://rejuven.staging.wpengine.com/](http://rejuven.staging.wpengine.com/)
* Thanks.

* had a look at the HTML and can’t seem to find a structural difference. rather
frustrating.
* anyways; lacking a root cause + solution, you could as workaround either
* not
optimize HTML (this is least important anyway, it does not cut down on number
of HTTP requests and the reduction of HTML size is not enormous) * add this CSS-
rule somewhere (in a style block in a text widget for example):
* ```
#navigation li{
margin-left: -1px !important;
}
```
* hope this helps,
frank

* Thanks for taking a look Frank.
* I’ll have a play with the CSS rule and see if it helps.
