Are there some special tags I need to use (or not use)when preparing a post using HTML with a table to avoid weird spacing problems?

Take a look at this screen shot and look at the distance between the last typed line and the table.

How do I remove this extra spacing which only seems to occur when tables are part of the HTML text?

Thanks for your help.

Each line will have an <br /> tag added to it, so for every new line in the table there will be an extra line after the table. You will have to keep all table tags on one line to avoid this.

For an html table do this: <table><tr><td>some content</td></tr></table>

Dont write it like this:

<table>
<tr>
<td>

some content

</td>
</tr>
</table>



There will be <br /> tags added for each new line.



Hope that helps.

I found this one out the hard way. When posting html table tags you have to place the entire table on a single line.

I've found that it's best to use as little html as possible in Threads.
