Problem with text field and table row...

I am having trouble with something that seems trivial. As you can see in the pic below, I intentionally used a green background on the rows causing the problem.<br />

I want to position the label "Due Date" closer to the text field over which it is positioned. You'll notice in the pic that there seems to be more "green" above the text field than below, which I'm assuming is caused by the browser positioning the text field at the bottom of the row. No matter what I try, I can't seem to get the label and the text field closer together. I've tried valign="top" to move the text field higher, but it doesn't seem to do anything. <br />
<br />
My table is define as border="0", cellspacing="0", and cellpadding="0", so I don't see where, or why, the browser is getting the extra space for the text field row.<br />
<br />
I'm very obsessive when it comes to little things like this, and I haven't eaten in almost 12 hours because I can't stop thinking about :D yeah, I know, sounds nuts, but any help would be appreciated.<br />
<br />
Thanks,<br />
