Problem with small gaps/lines between photos & background images in IE

[Rexolio]

For some reason (and I haven't noticed this before upgrading several months ago to IE 5.5) most times when I create a web page with an image that is broken into 2 images, split over 2 table cells there is a small gap or space between the 2 when I first pull it up in Internet Explorer. This usually goes away after I either minimize or refresh OR after I've been to the page a couple of times and its cached. For example:

<table>
<tr>
<td>
<img src=&quot;images/pic1.jpg&quot; border=&quot;0&quot;>
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>
<img src=&quot;images/pic2.jpg&quot; border=&quot;0&quot;>
</td>
</tr>
</table>

Where pic1.jpg is a person's head and pic2.jpg is there body. There will be a small gap. Of course I didn't add any table or cell properties to this example script, but I'm sure you get the picture.

Anyone else experiencing this problem? I haven't upgraded to 6.0 yet and really don't want to as I've heard there are bugs with it.

Thanks for your help!

Yea I had this problem, but not so much in the same way as you.....I was creating web pages using Front Page, and when I put in a pic, I got the 'gap, or Line' around them...
couldnt figure what it was....till I went into the picture properties, and then in the apperance tab, change the border thickness to 0. It already looked as if it was at 0, but was a blank field. I had to manually go in and change it to 0 myself....
dont know if this will be any use for you!?!? Jay~

I don't know if this helps any but I have been using Macromedia's Dreamweaver for our hospital website and have never run into this problem. The Macromedia Dreamweaver/Fireworks Studio is to me a much better product with many more features than Front Page.

Hi guys...thanks for the response. I use FrontPage, but checked the image properties and they all had borders set for &quot;0&quot;.

What version of Front Page do you use...???
You may have to re-enter the border size value to 0 again once the pic has been inserted.... Jay~

I'm using FrontPage 2000.

Go to the properties of the Table, (click the table to highlight a frame and then select table properties) and in there set the cell padding to 0 and the border size to 0. Jay~
