cellpadding - css

[Jan Faerber]

why is <table cellpadding="0"> and <table style="cellpadding:0;"> not the
same? There is a little 1px margin with css between the table border and an
image. Are there more such differences?

Possibly because there is no such CSS property as cellpadding.
You should look at the table bit of the recommendation:

Whatever you put into the quotes when using "styles" must conform to the CSS
specifications. cellpadding isn't one of them, but padding is. BTW, do you
want to set the padding for the table or the td's??

When I was transforming the file from the posing 'Controlling the height of
a div?' you have a banner on the top. So you need one big table with one
<td>, an inner-table in that <td> - I found that element now on
http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-CSS2/tables.html - for that inner table a <tr> and
a <td><img src=...">. The surounding table must not have a gap between its
double border and the pic. So I got a lot to read ... thx ... but I have to
go now.

There's no such property in CSS.

HTML:

<table cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">

The same with CSS:

table {border-spacing: 0}
table td {padding: 0}
