Firefox shows taller cell

Jon_Lawrance · January 31, 2011, 11:06pm

I have this code in part of a table:

<td width="41" height="25" bgcolor="#99CCFF"><p><strong>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</strong></p></td>
    <td height="20" colspan="3" bgcolor="#99CCFF">&nbsp;</td>
    <td height="20" bgcolor="#99CCFF">&nbsp;</td>

Its from here: http://www.access-programmers.co.uk/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=6

Look just below the tabs using Firefox and you can see the blue bar is taller than if you go to the homepage of my site. If you look using IE its always the same height.

What is wrong with my code that causes this anomaly?

Thanks,

Jon

Hi Jon. Basically I is just IE that show the bar differently. All other browsers showing it similar to FF (Chrome, Opera, Safari) So how does it suppose to be?

Should all the cells belong to the same row? I see that one cell’s height is 25, while the others’ heights are 20. Didn’t see any “<tr>”. I think the row should have the height attribute set.
