Horizontal white space is appearing between images in a table currently on the
front page of <http://www.RedHat.com>. I imagine that the content of that page
will change soon. I've quoted the relevant code below. I'll post a screenshot of
what i'm seeing. The page is rendered correctly in Konqueror.

I see this in Linux trunk builds 2001-10-12-08 and 2001-11-07-15.

bug 22274?

Confirming issue in the Nov 9th build under Mac OS X and Windows 2000.
Status: UNCONFIRMED → NEW
Ever confirmed: true
saw the gap some days ago - but with a CVS pulled including checkins up through
11/14/2001 02:06 shows no white gaps. (RH7.1)

WFM, 2001-11-25-08 on Windows 98 SE.
http://www.redhat.com now uses the following DOCTYPE:
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN">
the spacing between the images is still present on all platforms, I know Marc 
has seen this problem with whitespace between cells/rows

Target Milestone: --- → mozilla1.1
Comment 5 implies that a change in behavior has occurred in displaying the
RedHat site because RedHat has changed its doctype, but comment 3 (which was
made the same day this bug was created) suggests that this "new" doctype is the
same doctype which was being used when the bug was first reported.
Sorry to spam, but i meant comment 2 and comment 5.

Leston, the two DOCTYPEs are different, this one triggers standard mode layout:
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/1999/REC-html401-19991224/loose.dtd">

and this one triggers quirk mode layout:
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN">

http://www.redhat.com now uses the last one.
