Can't get rid of single pixel horizontal white space

Hello folks, I'm new here, so I apologize if I'm posting this in the wrong place. Please advise if there's a better place to ask this question.



You can see in the image here that there is a single pixel white line between the tan and blue table cells.

I suspect the problem is on account of the upper cell which contains an image. The image is tan and fills the cell from top to bottom. Is this a common issue? Any ideas?

Thanks very much,
Nick

Why is this in the code

Code:
<tr bgcolor="#ffffff">
        <td colspan="3"><img src="mm_spacer.gif" alt="" width="1" height="1" border="0" /></td>
      </tr>
A white background row with a transparent image? That would equal white

James is right. It's the spacer.gif that's adding the white line. When you remove it the area beneath moves up one px so you'll need to adjust the layout a little but.

The easies thing to do would be to replace spacer.gif with a similar image that's the same color as the tan background. Better, though would be to recode things since the spacer image shouldn't be necessary.

Thank you very much for helping me to find a solution to this. Based on your suggestions, I was able to find the row that was between the two cells I was looking at. I just deleted the spacer.gif and the row itself.

Thanks again for taking a look at this for me.

Sincerely,
Nick

Glad to help, though I think James deserves most of the credit for spotting it first. I just checked your site again and it looks good.
