Table Height

[Olaf Schinkel]

Hello !

I´m not sure, if i´m right here.

My problem:
(see code below)
When this is displayed with Opera -> It looks good
If it is dsiplayed with IE 6 -> It looks wrong

In Opera i see the flag an then the table ends.
With IE there is an extra empty line below the flag.
You can see this on http://schinkel.tv

Is it my fault or is the IE buggy?

Any idea?

Best
Olaf





Code:
echo "<tr class=\"langpix\" align=\"center\">";
echo "<td>";
echo "<form name=\"l1\" action=\"$PHP_SELF\">";
echo "<input type=\"hidden\" name=\"lang_sel\" value=\"german\">";
echo "<a href=\"javascript:self.document.l1.submit()\"><img src=
\"http://$p/flags/germany.gif\" border=\"0\">";
echo "</form>";
echo "</td><td>";
echo "<form name=\"l2\" action=\"$PHP_SELF\">";
echo "<input type=\"hidden\" name=\"lang_sel\" value=\"usa\">";
echo "<a href=\"javascript:self.document.l2.submit()\"><img src=
\"http://$p/flags/usa.gif\" border=\"0\">";
echo "</form>";
echo "</td";
echo "</tr>";

IE is buggy.

IE displays trailing spaces on forms; you can kill the space by changing
your form tag to read: <form style="margin-bottom:0px;" ...>

That should force IE to work out that you really dont want a random
space at the bottom

OK. This works fine.
