Nothing. It look fine in the design mode,  In fact - the problem only shows
up when previewed in IE - (in Firefox, it's fine) Other than giving up on
Dreamweaver, which is not an option right now, any ideas?>


Hi Evelyn,

Getting rid of a fine program like Dreamweaver will not solve your problem,
because the problem isn't Dreamweaver. The problem is either IE or your
code. Why don't you use the split screen view for Dreamweaver (code on top
and WYSIWYG on the bottom), and look closely at what is in the cell causing
you problems and a cell that is not causing you problems, and also look at
the properties set for each cell.

As for IE, which flavor of IE are you using. IE 6 and earlier treated code
different than IE7 and both treat code different than Firefox, Netscape,
Opera, etc. However, if only one cell is affected, I'd focus on your code in
that cell and the cell properties. If it was an IE bugaboo, it would affect
all the cells the same way.
