[UPHPU] overriding H1 bottom padding

[District Webmaster]

I actually just tried that same type of thing, and my debug class wasn't
applied at all, which leads me to think I may have a cacheing issue.
Still working off of that theory . . .

My first recommendation would be the padding and margins on the h* tag, 
like the others who have responded. You give the impression you've tried

that though, so my other suggestion is that maybe it's a margin/padding 
on the element right after the h* that's making the space? A trick I've 
found useful in diagnosing these types of problems is to add a class 
'debug' to my CSS file that sets the border nice and loud, then add that

class to the elements I want to check on and see where their border 
actually falls.

Any space between borders of elements is due to the margin on one or 
both, and space between the content and border of an element is due to 
padding.
