Unwanted extra border and padding are showing up at the bottom of my HTML

Recently, I decided to experiment with the jquery superslide plugin on a website of mine. To my surprise, there was an unexpected padding at the bottom of the page. My suspicion is that the display area is not being calculated correctly or that a margin is interfering with the HTML structure. Unfortunately, I have been unable to pinpoint the exact issue. Any insights are greatly appreciated!

Update: Upon further investigation, it appears that a " " character is being added at the end of the HTML document, as confirmed through site validation. I have attempted to remove any extra spaces or newlines after closing tags, but the problem persists. Any guidance on where I may be going wrong would be helpful. Thank you!

Answer №1

A strange anomaly was discovered in the file - a mysterious &nbsp suddenly appeared at the end.

Despite attempts to target this node with CSS failing, I proposed a jquery solution of filtering text nodes using: 

$(document.body).html($(document.body).children());
(note that this method will eliminate the first and last text nodes - requiring at least one non-text child under body for "proper" content display)

Refer to question comments for further details.
