I started a webpage a long time ago. I had a few problems. Fixed them and thought I had it licked, but it's popped up again.

In Firefox, the pages display fine.
In internet explorer there are errors in the tables. These tables were all exported from photoshop.
Try the following links in both browsers and you will notice the problem:
http://trempel.rbsstech.com/digital_projects/3d_models/3d.htm
http://trempel.rbsstech.com/digital.htm

Some pages, however, appear to be okay. At least on my PC they are. Here are exapmles of two that work fine in both browsers:
http://trempel.rbsstech.com/digital_2d.htm
http://trempel.rbsstech.com/traditional/traditional.htm

This site is not completed yet. If you find broken links, don't worry about it.
THanks for any help,
-travis

Well, my first suggestion would be to never use Photoshop to output HTML code. I would suggest learning HTML and coding it yourself. There are some very valuable reasons for this: Your pages won't break as often like this, your pages will load faster, and you're just that much cooler.

That being said, IE doesn't like it when you do things like this:

Code:

<td><img src="blah.gif" height="1" width="1" border="0" alt="blah">
</td>


IE interprets that line break after the image as a space and everything goes crazy. It should be like this:

Code:

<td><img src="blah.gif" height="1" width="1" border="0" alt="blah"></td>


That will fix the bulk of your problems. The other big thing is vertical alignment. The default vertical alignment for something is middle. It almost always needs to be top. So on the td cells you're still having issues with add this:

Code:
<td valign="top"></td>


You specifically need to add that attribute to every td in your second to last row of your first table.

I would just like to emphasize how much I think you should learn HTML. That code is terrible...

I hear ya but coding isn't really my idea of fun. Anyway thanks for the suggestions (that much hand-writing I think I can handle). I'll try to get back with the results as soon as possible.

I've redesigned it. I did as you said to the old page, but then Idecided to redo it anyway. And I have the same problem.

I would really appreciate it if anyone could visit http://trempel.rbsstech.com/ in both Ie and friefox and notice how the gaps betweem the tables change. I want them to look as they do in firefox. Any help with this would be great.

thanks, travis.

last night I thought I had fixed it, but no such luck. It's still all messed up. I really have no idea why, the code looks fine to my unexperienced eye.
thanks again for any help anyone can offer.

Okay, sorry guys, I've got it fixed.
I was using small spacer images to put a gap between tables, so I just had to take the first line of table code and put it up next to the spacer image code.
Sorry to make such a long thread
