I believe that you are referring to the actual page output. Whitespace is
the blank space that you would see on a view source.
Anyhow, I would imagine that you are displaying everything in a table that
has hidden form fields somewhere in it. Hidden form fields take up a very
small amount of real estate on your page, but if these are all bunched
together, it can really screw up the expected output. If your hidden form
fields are outside of tds, it places the resulting space prior to the table.
just like
<table>
<tr>
<td>A</td>
<td>B</td>
C
</tr>
</table>
would place the C prior to the table

Subject: Large recordset = large whitespace???
I have a query that can return several thousand records. When I run a query
that only returns a small number ( lets say 15 or so, which is what I have
seen), the page behaves fine, displays fine, etc. HOWEVER if I return a
large number of records (1020, which is what I have seen), there is a huge
amount of white space (like 2 page down's worth on a 1024 X 768 resolution)
displayed before the table of results... in effect, making it look as if
there was nothing returned, and all there is showing initially is the page
header graphics. I've made sure everything that can be set to 0 is
(margins, cellpadding, etc.) and that all the table elements are valigned
to TOP... any other suggestions?
