    Internet Explorer 8 HTML Issue

    My main page at http://internetgameproject.exofire.net/ is not loading its table correctly in Internet Explorer 8. It works with a PSP though. The images in the table cells should have no spacing between them but for some reason in Internet Explorer 8 they are spaced out. I am using HTML. Is there anything I can do to fix this?

    Code:
        <tr>
            <td align="center">
                <a href="News.html" target="Content">
                    <p align="center">
                        <img src="Links_Table_News.jpg" border="0" vspace="0" hspace="0">
                    </>
                </a>
            </td>
        </tr>
    The above code is what I found in the first row of your table. There are two things.

    1) You have a <p> tag that you start but do not close. I believe the </> tag is where you meant to put the </p> closing tag.

    2) The fact that you are using a <p> tag is probably what is causing the spacing between your rows.

    I hope this helps. :drool:
    Two rules of development:
    1) Computers work for people; People do not work for computers
    2) Maintainability is all that matters.

    Only inline elements are allowed in <a> elements, and <p> is a block element. Any reason you put the <p> in the <a>? Run your pages through W3C's valdator to catch other structural errors.

    While you're at it, replace the table based layout with CSS and add a <noframes> element for browsers that don't support frames, such as screen readers and search spiders.
