can someone please explain to me why having a doctype of
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN">
and
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN">
render the following block differently under firefox?
<table style="border-collapse:collapse; margin:0; padding:0;">
<tr>
<td style="border:1px solid red; margin:0; padding:0;"><img src="http://images.smh.com.au/2010/06/01/1533814/th_park-90x60.jpg" style="border:none; padding:0; margin:0;" /></td>
</tr>
</table>
using 'Transitional', there is no white space below the image, using 'Strict' there is!
2nd question, using strict, is it at all possible to remove this whitespace?
