Trouble with eliminating space from between table rows! :)

[JProg]

Hi Everyone,

I have written a page that presents a table inside a div tag. The table contained within the div tag is being used with some javascript to make a pop-up menu. Everything is working sweat, menu pops-up, etc, however I am not 100% satisfied with how the menu looks. I have white space between pictures that I am using in the table. Basically the table is made up of a seven rows, each containing one data cell. A picture is contained within each data cell. I cannot get rid of about 2mm of white space between the pictures! I have tried setting the table to use no border, 0 cellpadding and 0 cellspacing, all to no avail. Is there anything else that you could suggest I do in order to eliminate this really annoying white space? Thanks in advance for your help.

Regards

Davo

Try this:

<table style="margin:0px; padding:0px;" ....

opinion {
inline-styles: are-messy;
internal-stylesheets: waste-space;
external-stylesheets: are-bliss;
}

Hi mate,

Without seeing your code it's hard to tell, but one thing to make sure is that there are no breaks in your table cells.

<TABLE border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0> 
<TR> 
<TD><IMG src="example.jpg"> 
</TD> 
<TD><IMG src="example.jpg"> 
</TD> 
</TR> 
</TABLE>

If you have something like the above, it should be changed to:

<TABLE border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0> 
<TR> 
<TD><IMG src="example.jpg"></TD> 
<TD><IMG src="example.jpg"></TD> 
</TR> 
</TABLE>

Notice there are no breaks in the table cells.

Hope this helps

Wullie,

Thanks for the info, I was able to sort my presentation issues out. HTML certainly has a lot of little quirks!

Again, thanks

Hi mate,

There are quite a few of them. The trick is to remember for future use, so you don't get caught out with the same thing twice. (It's happened to me more than once)

Hope this helps
