IE differences to Netscape help

Daimajin

Hi,
I was wondering if anyone could help me out here. I have been working on
a site for my brother .When I look at my page in NS it looks just as We
want it too but in IE there are 2 breaks inbetween the line(line.jpg)
running down the left side and the images on the top(top.jpg) and
bottom(bottom.jpg). Basically it seems like there is padding around the
cell in which the image(line.jpg) is in but only when in IE...In NS the
lines on all 3 connect seamlessly creating a border. any help is
appreciated.

Thanks

btw here is the code from my page...not sure if it helps.

No, the code does not help. The code is (in this case) only part of your
problem. The other part is the images you are using. Without those any help
would only be a guess [1]. It might even be a problem with your server.

Supply a URL.

[1] here is the guess:

<img ...>
<td> - bad.

<img ...><td> - good.

What would really help is a URL to where the code can be accessed. As it
stands, to help you each of us must independently post this code. That's a
lot of work for the pay we get...

How about a url rather than the code so we can see the issue rather than
needing to build the page for ourselves?

[1] here is the guess:

<img ...>
<td> - bad.

<img ...><td> - good.

They both look bad to me.
Did you mean <td><img> or <img></td> perhaps?

The end tag for TD is optional.

Good point.

Looking at the OP's code I see that he had
<td>
<img></td>

So I guess that <td><img> was the correct corecrtion and everything
else is just so much waffle.
