Can't get rid of space between image and table...

I am working on this page: http://www.wwcc.edu/CMS/index.php?id=3109

There's a space between the image header and the table below it and it shows up in both Firefox and IE. I'm using Dreamweaver, and it all looks fine in dreamweaver cause it shows the image aligned right above the table and no space. I don't know why a space is showing when viewed in a browser! I've tried so many things to try to fix it by changing stuff for the table or css.

Anyone have any suggestions on how to fix it? Below is the code for the whole page:

<script type="text/javascript">
var a = new Image(); a.src = 'root.gif';
var b = new Image(); b.src = 'hover.gif';
</script>

<style type="text/css">

....... Sorry if it's a lot of code.. I wasn't sure if there was a hide/show feature or something, but I tried looking for it but couldn't find it. Anyways, thanks for taking the time to look at this.

 

You've got a space after your image, delete that and all should be fine.

<td align="left" valign="bottom"><img src="http://www.wwcc.edu/CMS/fileadmin/Image_Archive/EdApps/EdApps_Header.jpg" border="0" align="bottom" usemap="#Map" class="header" /><table width="700" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" id="mytable1" vspace="0">

 

Oh thank you so much! It did work! The space is gone when viewed in Internet Explorer, but it still shows up when viewed in Firefox... is there any way to fix that?

 

what version of Firefox are you using? I'm using 3.0.15 and it looks fine

 

Mine says it's version 3.0.18
I think there's a newer version... maybe I'll upgrade to it and see if it works out.

 

Hm, yeah, I upgraded to Firefox 3.6 and it still shows the space.. strange..

 

I've upgraded to 3.0.18 and it still looks fine.

Maybe someone else could check it on their machines?

 

No space here. Firefox 3.5.8.

 

Theres lots of errors being thrown up when trying to validate it - fix these up and you might get lucky
