Description

From Bugzilla Helper:

BuildID:    2001112009

It seems that Mozilla is having problems displaying the XHTML tag <br /> (do not
mix with the HTML tag <br>)

On the left side of the page it is possible to see two "blank spaces" between
the images that create the "interface".

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Go to http://www.kamborio.com/

This has nothing to do with <br /> and everything to do with bug 22274.

If you read that bug, it describes why you're getting that space under your
images and how you can get rid of it.

Hmmm...  Just guessing here, but looks like the reporter ([e-mail]) is
the contact person for kamborio.com.  I also see his email address linked a few
times on the page regarding posts...

David, please read bug 22274 to learn how to fix the problem with your code. If
you still need help on fixing this after reading that bug, please let either
myself or Tristan know (you can post in this bug if you like) and we can help.

Setting milestone of Dec. since this should be fixed by then hopefully :)

First of all, thank you for your time.

Further tests showed that the problem is not only on the XHTML tag <br />, the 
problem also occurrs when using the HTML tag <br>. I'm sorry about my wrong 
interpretation on first place.

I've removed the DOCTYPE on my develop server, and the page renders fine on 
Mozilla 0.9.6 but becomes non (X)HTML compilant. Is there another solution? Is 
this a bug or not?

I don't want to trouble a lot of people just because "my web page doesn't 
render properly on mozilla". I just posted this bug because I thought it was 
important and maybe another websites were in this kind of "terrible problem" ;)

Should I sacrifice (X)HTML compilance for a proper rendering?

Thanks for reading.

If you change all your:

<td><img></td>

to:

<td><img style="display: block"></td>

that will fix it.  That is the way the HTML/CSS specs are written.  Using tables
for images is an ugly web hack anyway.  Please read
http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=22274 for more information about
this.  It is not a bug in Mozilla.
