Gaps around graphics inside a cell

[Chris McLean]

I have placed a graphic inside a cell with borders. I have set the cell size
to exactly the same size as the graphic, but whatever I do there is a small
gap between the bottom edge of the graphic and the cell border (the graphic
is top and left aligned). Cell padding and spacing are set to 0. The total
height of all cells in the table equals the height of the table. I have
played around with leaving height as automatic as compared to specifying it,
but nothing gets rid of that little gap at the bottom of the graphic where
the background shows between the graphic and the cell border. I am using FP
2000. Can anyone help with this?

Try any/all of these:

o In HTML view, make sure there's nothing between the
<td> and </td> except your <img> tag.
o Get rid of all cell heights in the row that contains
the picture.
o Make sure no other cells in the same column are
slightly taller than your picture (i.e. that no
adjascent cell is forcing the bottom border downward).
o I almost hate to mention this, but open your picture
in a picture editor, zoom in, and check the bottom
edge for white pixels.

<td><img src="whatever"></td>

and

<td><img src="whatever">
</td>

will give you different results.
It's possibly the </td> on the newline causing your problem (I know it does
to me).
Edit the HTMl and put the </td> on the same line as the <td> and it will
probably solve the problem.

Also set your cell and image alignments
