Html <TD> width problem

[Fonz]

Ok, I've had this problem several times before and I've never been able to solve it.

It only seems to happen in IE...

You see that the spaces between the thumbs decrease in size if you go from left to right. If I remove the black text in the center of the ad at the center of the page all the spaces between the thumbs are the same again but as soon as I start typing text and it jumps to a new line the <td> the text is in just gets smaller.

FF doesn't seem to have this problem..

Anyone?

Hey Fonz

Change <td colspan=2 rowspan=2 align=left valign=middle> to <td width=360 colspan=2 rowspan=2 align=left valign=middle> and see if it fixes the problem.

Your table math doesn't add up correctly.

<TABLE width=766
should be
<table width=840
And on the nested table
<table width=720
Should be
<table width=840

..or possibly a width="25%" in each of the TD tags for one row... should hold it in place...

Having a quick look:
Try adding a width to the text cell

width="390"
2x180 (the cell widths) + 2x15 (the cellspacing that you are merging)

Well I'll be damned, that did the trick
Thanx!

Cleo, I got 2 tables, one width 766, the other nested in the first width 720, don't know where that 840 comes from

Thanks for the help all.
