Hi!

I designed a homepage for my web site - so far, so good.
The problem is that the page is displayed with "bugs" in Firefox: there is a white "line-space" on the top of the page and a grey line under the image.
In I.E. and Opera I have no problem.

Can someone look at my source and help me to fix the problem?

Thanks,
Zozo

<td width="680" valign="top" background="common/down-11-rep.jpg"><!--DWLayoutEmptyCell-->&nbsp;</td>

Give that cell a fixed height (19) and put a spacer.gif in there (1 wide 19 high) instead of the nbsp.

Jaymz,

Thank you for your help! I almost can't believe that I resolved the problem...

God bless you!

Ahhh, is it so the spacer.PNG (!) works. Have seen them when I have saved some sites, but never been abled to find out why they where used. Thanks Jaymz!

Spacers fix that problem of collapsing/expanding tables. By default a nonbreaking space (&nbsp) is put in there, but that is, again by default, about 14px high. By replacing that with a spacer the cell will resize to the correct dimensions They're also good for minute spaces between things

Yea, agreed ^^ Every site should com complete with spacer.gif... i dont remember making any sites without it
