hi sathish

i guess you were fairly busy replying to other emails recently

did you read the article i sent you to?

  Does Netscape 6 Break Your Table Layouts?
  http://evolt.org/article/view/17/4427/index.html

then you will know how to fix your broken table

yes, this is a bug in netscape 6, as you will see when you read all the
comments under the article

sorry, i don't know if this has been fixed in netscape 6.01 which came out
recently


another point to be made is that if you (well, not you personally,
sasthish, if you know what i mean -- anybody) are slicing an image and
laying it out with tables and applying wysiwyg-supplied "behaviours" then
perhaps the problem is in the method

i have always thought that those editors should not be called wysiwyg but
rather wygiwyd (what you get is what you deserve)

web page design should be flexible enough to handle an extra line space
here or there

the web is, after all, about content, not form, and sliced tables
definitely falls on the "form" side of the ledger

just my 2 cents canadian
