IE gap between table cells

[Xallow]

Hi there

I am having some trouble with IE and a 1px gap between table cells, I can't get that gap to go away and it makes my site look ridiculous! in Firefox everything looks fine but in IE it looks terrible, anybody know how to get rid of this stupid problem? It is only vertically I have the problem, horizontally it looks ok

Thanks

Got an example we can look at?

Did you use cellspacing=0 ?

Tables suck man! You are probably using Dreamweaver or something similar like me, and I have trouble with tables, I look at the source and it looks fine, then when in IE, one cell, the text is top aligned and the other cells its in the middle. I also had the same thing as you with the gaps when I was making my tgp site, and I showed the code to several people and they were dumbfounded as to why it had the gap. Tables suck! Try making the table again from scratch.

You can try optimizing your code so it's almost all on one line with no unnecessary spaces between any html tags. Make all the tags touch each other and your problem may go away.

Yes, I used cellspacing=0

I like tables, they are normally easy to work with

Example

You aren't ending your rows proprerly before starting the next.

<tr><td class="top" colspan="2">
   <h1>Title</h1>
  </td><tr>
  <tr><td class="mid" colspan="2">

  </td><tr>

Now what's wrong

The sides wont line up this time, I just don't get that, they are of a fixed width and they SHOULD line up!!! HELP

There's no </table> tag.

and no end row tag here:
<tr><td class="bottom" colspan="2">
<br><br>2257 Compliance: http://legal.tamedteens.com<br><br>
</td><tr>

that didn't fix it

Without seeing your CSS, I've no idea. You do have a lot of improperly nested tags, but nothing so important that they should make that effect. Mostly <b>, </b> and <center> tags. Your code is fairly difficult to follow.

Well, I fixed the problem, I have no idea what did it but fixed it is

I've found that sometimes problems like this can be isolated more easily by validating the page

I think that background is hard on the eyes and makes your text and links hard to read.
