Re: [WSG] How do I combat extra padding?
I just tested out Bert's solution, and it works. Set vertical align of the images to bottom. Very nice to know, thanks Bert. :)

IIRC, its a carriage return in your markup. If you have then gecko-based browsers will allow space for the carriage return. The fix is things like this: Thats IIRC - its been a while since I used tables for this sort of layout. I'm not uptodate on the hacks required.

Re: [WSG] How do I combat extra padding?
G'day I had to create a table for this piece of our templates but am finding that firefox, netscape 7 and opera are adding extra padding under the images in the top row of cells. So far my fix has been to give our mozilla stylesheet margin-bottom: -4px for these images which has worked but I would like to know why firefox, netscape and opera are adding the extra padding. I recall having similar issues myself with table based layouts in the past. From memory, Mozilla, gives the images a vertical-align of "baseline" unless you override it. Try giving them (in css) a vertical-align:bottom.

[WSG] How do I combat extra padding?
I had to create a table for this piece of our templates but am finding that firefox, netscape 7 and opera are adding extra padding under the images in the top row of cells. So far my fix has been to give our mozilla stylesheet margin-bottom: -4px for these images which has worked but I would like to know why firefox, netscape and opera are adding the extra padding.
