Marshall, if I change my cell padding to zero and my cell spacing to zero, and ensure I take out any paragraphs in the start of my text in a table, then it certainly improves the look.

However, if I leave everything as it is, that is keep the cell padding at 5 and cell spacing at 2, but remove the DOCTYPE reference at the top of my HTML file, that REALLY fixes the appearance the page.

In other words, the DOCTYPE line of code is screwing with the appearance of the page.

Would it be really bad just to leave the DOCTYPE code out?

Cheers :)
