My website is the same way, but am I going to restrict myself to css 2.1? Hell no.

Just drag the space out of the dock, like you would do when you want to remove an icon.

Neat trick, how can you remove the space?

Great stuff Jeffrey. I love little OS X tips like these.

Also, for others who may be interested; when I tried this, I was given an error in Terminal. When I restarted the Dock, most of my icons disappeared. I restarted my system and I only had 4 icons left in the dock; but when I tried the Terminal code it worked just fine and I just put my icons back in.

I’m pretty sure this may have been because I customized the appearance of my Dock and there was some sort of conflict. Either way, my custom appearance stayed the same and I still got the spaces added in. Love it!

By the way Jeffrey, the bar at the bottom of the window is blocking the Submit Comment button. I just popped in a display: none; in the CSS to hide it real quick though. Might want to take a peek at that though.

@Matt – Restart your dock. Or, like Mike said, force restart by then typing “killall Dock” into the terminal.

Jeff you forgot to mention that before you can view the space you must type “killall Dock” (without quotes) into terminal which will force it to restart, and then reveal the new space.

That’s great. Now what do you do when you need to take away spaces?

just a guess…
defaults write com.apple.dock persistent-apps -array-subt ‘{”tile-type”=”spacer-tile”;}’
