ARGH, HTML row height problems

[idbuythatforadollar]

The image speaks for itself really,

Why the hell don't the row heights in IE default to the image size.

They wont even shrink if i set height=1 on the TR or each of the TDs, or use style="height: 1px"

What am i doing wrong?

cheers

Can you show us the code?

Try setting the font size / line height on the td (even if it's a non-break space it'll have size and height).

If the issue is the break between the rows (and you have cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" in the <table> tag), try border-collapse: collapse in the table style.

Edit: another possibility is ensuring there is no whitespace in the code for the tds:

<td><img src="summat.gif"></td>

instead of:

<td>
    <img src="summat.gif">
</td>

That whitespace issue probably tops my list of most infuriating IE bugs.

the whole page or table source code would help not just that spot. ie has some stupid quirks for sure
