problem with <table> tag

Hi!

I tried to use the HTML <table> tag to put some pictures on my serendipity blog, and somehow I always got an unwanted space on top of the table (both in Firefox and IE). Nothing looks suspicious in the page source, so I guess this is connected to the stylesheet??

I run serendipity v. 0.7.1.

Here is the adress of my blog:
http://leilujapan.free.fr

The entry concerned is the January 4th one.

Has anyone encountered that problem?
Thank you very much for your help in advance!

Jonathan

This can happen if you are using the "nl2br" Markup plugin that turns newlines into "<br />".

You can install the plugin "Extended properties for entries" and disable the use of nl2br per entry. Then you need to create your own linebreaks, though.

Or you just remove all whitespace in your HTML code, so that no linebreak is translated.

BTW: The plugin I'm speaking of is only available since serendipity 0.9.1.
BTW2: You should serously consider upgrading Serendipity. Your version contains some security leaks.

Best regards,
Garvin

The effect of the <br> lines inside the table was a tricky one...

Thank you very much!
