StyleSheets Killed the Table code Star... (well, not yet)

OK, I hate to ask, because this seems like something I should be able to
figure out by myself, but I'm spending too much time beating my forehead
this evening, and I'm passing the point of diminishing returns. <sigh>

Anyway, my problem is either with tables or with stylesheets. I think. I'm
not really sure. I had something that seemed to be working, but as I've
tried to make it XHTML compliant, and move from tables to stylesheets for a
lot of things, I ran into a bump.

I'm using a mac, and in IE5 it's working fine. (Probably because the
browser is "forgiving" whatever the boo boo is.) When I started looking in
either Opera, or Netscape 4 or 6, I noticed that there was extra space at
the bottom of the table cells. I tried removing any spaces or tabs in the
source code, and putting the content of the cells between the <.td> and
<./td> tags, etc. No luck.

If nothing else, I'd like to hear what the result is in various browsers on
the windows platform... maybe this is a mac issue? I'm doubting it, but
won't bet anything at this point.
