I discovered, quite by chance, that if you put the FORM inside a TABLE, but outside of the TR and TD elements then you suppress the space. An evil bypass. If you don't close the TD and TR elements in the table, then the extra space gets dumped into the last cell on the first row, as horizontal space, for some strange reason. The HTML is so invalid, it's pointless wondering why. I'd never bothered closing TR and TD elements until I got this odd space; I'd never encountered a browser that cared, and I had plenty of users on slow modem connections whose only concern was "minimalistic" HTML at all costs. -- Steve Swift http://www.swiftys.org.uk/swifty.html http://www.ringers.org.uk |
