Getting Rid Of Default Form Tag Space

When a <form...> tag is used on a web page, it inserts a line break and a blank line by default. Both of those can be disabled with CSS.

The style display:inline; removes the line break. The style margin:0; removes the blank line.

This
is an example.

If the form is put within tags that default with their own line breaks and/or margins, like the p paragraph tag, its attributes may have an effect on the form tag.

Here is the code for the above example.

This 
<form 
   style="margin:0; display:inline;">
<input 
   type="submit" 
   value="Submit Button" 
   onclick="alert('example');return false;">
</form> 
is an example.

The styles display:inline; and margin:0; can be used individually or together in one style definition.
