can someone tell me why my website looks different in ie than firefox? i have the images in a layout with a table with zero spacing and borders. so why does it look correct in firefox but in ie it has spaces?

Because IE sucks and does not follow web compliance. Although they just release IE7, so we'll see if they improved this.

P.S. I don't see any images. I am using IE6

Use a full doctype declaration (http://www.w3.org/QA/2002/04/valid-dtd-list.html) to get IE out of "quirks mode".

If using HTML:<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd">
If using XHTML:<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN"
