spacer problem

autopost · Jan 10, 2008

I'm trying to make a fixed table with a transparent spacer but... 
 
<table width="900" border="1" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"> 
<tr> 
<td><img src=http://www.htmlforums.com/archive/index.php/"spacer.gif" width="1" height="1"></td> 
<td><img src=http://www.htmlforums.com/archive/index.php/"spacer.gif" width="55" height="1"></td> 
<td><img src=http://www.htmlforums.com/archive/index.php/"spacer.gif" width="10" height="1"></td> 
<td><img src=http://www.htmlforums.com/archive/index.php/"spacer.gif" width="250" height="1"></td> 
<td><img src=http://www.htmlforums.com/archive/index.php/"spacer.gif" width="10" height="1"></td>

<td><img src=http://www.htmlforums.com/archive/index.php/"spacer.gif" width="1" height="5"></td> 
<td> </td> 
<td> </td> 
<td> </td>

</tr> 
<tr> 
in fact i need some cells 5p of height but im not able

WOAH! have you got a scrambler on that thing? 
the problem may be that even if your pictures are only 3 pxl the tables always add a tiny bit of extra space. Im not sure how to fix it, but im sure that scoutt or somebody can giva ya some fancy CSS to fix it!Try this (the part in bold is what I added): 
 
 
<td style="height: 5px;"><img src=http://www.htmlforums.com/archive/index.php/"spacer.gif" width="1" height="5"></td>i doesnt work but thanxtry 4px, becuase perhaps that IS 5 and you u dont like it like that....

im CONFUSEDIve tried 1 px and i doesnt work and try to visualise the file index.html with a spacer.gif file you ll see what happenssry then, i have no clue. 
maybe you should PM scoutt or sumtin, hes real smart

Strange effect..... 
i used Arachnophilia, even the "Tools-Compress" option could not help. 
 
This is working: 
<tr ><td width="1" height="5" valign="top">  </td> 
 
So i left the img out......
