Actually, that particular page (and many more) weren't created by me.
I'm just using the same stylesheet to make some new pages dealing with
some new functions. In a way I'm kind of stuck using their styling (the
<span>, for instance, although I suppose I could easily change that),
but I definitely am being more strict with my structure, such as no <br>
to make space. My page also has a doctype.

I guess they put the nbsp in there on purpose, because it does look
nicer than mine, but in order to do the same thing I like I'll use div
padding or span margin. You suggest:

padding: 10px 0px 10px 10px; ?
