Gaps between images in XHTML

[adder]

Hi,

I needed to convert a page to XHTML, it is actually very simple at the top there is a table with two rows housing an image cut in two bits.

When adding the XHTML doctype, a horizontal gap appears between both table rows. Remove the doctype, it disappears. Magic!

The silly thing is that the code validates, that's why I have no suggestions where to start and what to fix.

Any ideas much appreciated.

Aah, don't bother. I added style="display:block;" to img tags. Should be OK now.

FYI... Images are inline elements by default and consequently (in standards compliant mode, not just XHTML) sit on the baseline of the surrounding text (or imaginary baseline if there is no text). The gap below the image is the space below the baseline - the space for any descenders (tail of the 'g', 'y' etc.).

penders, eh, that's interesting. I thought it was just another FireFox error.

"another" error? What's the other one?
