This may be a sledgehammer to crack a nut and also not recommended but you
could try this

<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript">
function GetImg()
{document.getElementById('Image').innerHTML =
'<img src="name" alt="">'}
//------------Alter name to the name of the image
</script>
</head>

<body onload="GetImg()">
<span id="Image">Image here</span>
</body>
</html>

You will have to edit the HTML but FP will not know there is an image and so
won't add the parameters.

This can be altered (as I have) to present a series of images, using arrays
in javascript.

Don't use the Table layout Tool or drag any cells

I use layout tables quite a bit and would like to know why the height code
would be invalid and if it does create invalid code, why would MS use it?

would like to know why the height code would be invalid
Because there is no height attribute for said:
why would MS use it?
Click to expand...
Because they've extended their browser's functionality to use it, thereby
trapping newbies into doing things they shouldn't, forcing the newbie to
assume that all the other browsers are doing something wrong.

Switch to FireFox for your testing, and you should be OK in IE. Oh wait, IE
is 6+ years old and not up to properly displaying some modern, existing
attributes.

The height tag is NOT invalid, as it is support by browsers and is part of the W3C HTML 3.2
Recommendations.
See: http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html32#table

BTW: The W3C defines Deprecated as:

A deprecated element or attribute is one that has been outdated by newer constructs.

[and goes on to say]
Deprecated elements may become obsolete in future versions of HTML.

[and]
User agents [browsers] should continue to support deprecated elements for reasons of backward
compatibility.

Note: Even with no mention of a actual height attribute for the table tag in HTML 3.2, IE, FireFox,
Opera, NS 3.04, NS 4.08, NS 6.21 and NS 7.01 browsers do support it, at least under Windows.

The beta is due out sometime this summer. But only because of IE's loss of
marketshare. The original plan was to not release a new version until
Longhorn came out.

IMO, it's too late, and in the rush to get it out, it will probably just be
IE6 with a fresh coat of paint and more bugs.

imo, it's sorely needed. the only reason i use it the most is that it's quicker to access, and it's connection to FP.
