I have a page which looks fine in all browsers but NS6. It is inserting some space between rows of a table and I am off three pixels in alignment on another table. I can't post the code on line but I can give it here:

<?xml version=&quot;1.0&quot; ?>

Regarding extra space between table rows - what table are you talking about? The are lots of them on your page.

It is impossible to see the tables as you see them because you didn't specify dimentions (width and height) of all images in your code. It also makes impossible to see any other small issues because of this.

What I found, however, was a difference between IE5 and N6 in showing blank lines between text paragraphs in content table. The reason is that the following code is interpreted in different ways:
<br /><br />
<p>

Every <p> should be followed by a closing </p> tag. This is required by standard and N6 is very &quot;straight&quot; here (as well as Opera does - it shows your page exactly as N6).

Its the left hand menu you are referring to?
It looks fine to me in IE6 but not seeing the images changes my view of it, but I see very little space between rows.
Did you try changing the line height/padding/margins of your text links?
Is there a need to specify the height of the cells? Perhaps this is showing too much &quot;white space&quot;.
Just some thoughts...

good luck with it!
