119339 - Images within table cells are improperly spaced and incorrectly stretch the table height.

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 22274

(Core :: Layout: Tables, defect)

Description

[Dwight Brown]

Images that are placed within a table cell seem to add spacing to the bottom of 
the image.

This results in a table with an image in it getting stretched to an incorrect 
size. Placing a single 22px high image into a table cell causes the table 
height to increase beyond 22px.

I put together this example, which has been W3C validate for html 4.01 strict 
and css:

The tables render correctly in Opera and IE.

Yes, it's valid HTML and CSS, but Mozilla is rendering it correctly. Read bug
22274 about why and how you can fix it.

Thanks
