Spacing Issues

Page in question: http://www.vbstartup.com/pdz/

Does anybody know why even though the code is the same on lines 134 & 136 and 247 & 249, there is more space at the top of the banner image than the bottom?

Also, does anyone know why does IE adds some space between the header/menu table and login bar table?

And, if you are still reading by this time, Opera seems to display the login boxes farther to the right than IE/FF... anyone have any ideas as to why this is?

NOTE: This thread is not a place to gripe about the use of tables... If you can help me, great, thanks a bunch! If you can't, don't just make a post saying that I shouldn't use tables.

Thanks in advance,
Nick

Check, if you have any margin's set or in CSS, or if there is a margin there, IE may not need it, and is pushing it down. After the margin put like _margin: 0px; and it will go away. Stupid IE will read it anyway.

Margins don't appear to be causing the problem.

give the menu table a top margin of -3px.

I'd really rather find out what is causing the issue and fix it instead of finding a way to work around my own buggy code.

I try using Edit CSS. I will edit it in about 2-5 minutes.

EDIT: I wonder what the padding is on the login table.

Browsers sometimes handle things differently, IE especially, CSS or coding.

Thats what CSS hacks are for.

To fix the menu in IE put this in the CSS

And why exactly are you coding a vbskin in HTML, it doesnt make sense.
