i am in the middle of designing a website and im using tables to create the layout with graphics i've created in a graphics program. I made the tables cellpadding set to = 0 but yet when i still put images into the table there is still a space on the bottom of it.

here is a screen shot of it to make what im trying to ask more easier to understand.

i want to rid the gap between the 2 images and the bottom of the table.

Try adding this to the <head> section of your page:

<style type="text/css">
table img {
display: block;
}
</style>

ehh it brought the image to meet the bottom border of the table but it messed it up also... now it looks like this...

Make Sure about the CellSpacing = 0
and the &nbsp; which indicates the white spaces between characters
but i think this is because of the cellspacing between the cells of the table

scrap all the table/cell/row spacing/padding, put in

<style type="text/css">
*{margin:0;padding:0;}
</style>

Remember images might have a default padding/margin too.

On a side not, you *really* should NOT be using tables to layout your pages!! We aren't living in the stone age anymore.
