The Google Map "map_canvas" div is giving itself a 15px top and bottom margin. (see attachement) I need the top margin to be 0.

Been through tons of Cobalt files and cannot find where this is set. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Can you try override those values in your custom joomla template CSS file with !important flag?

No, the element style overrides it.

If you delete it there, it will come back with next update.

Try CSS. I think if you add !important to your statements element styles will not override.

Sergey, even with the !important in the statement the element style overrode it.

In new version I moved those parameters to <style> instead of inline. Let's see if it will work.

By the way can you show what you put in your CSS file?

Sure, since the div has an id and not a defined class I used:

#map_canvas {
        margin-top:0; !important
}

Check your syntax. You should put !important before ; ?!

BTW, here is a nice additional trick for persistant styles.

In general, !important should be avoided at all costs. Choose it as a last resort.

@Sergey
Please, avoid inline styles as much as possible. No matter if they are in extra style tags ;-)
