html doctype adds whitespace?
can someone please explain to me why having a doctype of
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN">
and
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN">
render the following block differently under firefox?
<table style="border-collapse:collapse; margin:0; padding:0;">
<tr开发者_运维问答>
<td style="border:1px solid red; margin:0; padding:0;"><img src="http://images.smh.com.au/2010/06/01/1533814/th_park-90x60.jpg" style="border:none; padding:0; margin:0;" /></td>
</tr>
</table>
using 'Transitional', there is no white space below the image, using 'Strict' there is!
2nd question, using strict, is it at all possible to remove this whitespace?
As you can see in this table, the first Doctype triggers quirks mode in all browsers, the second will trigger standards mode.
The rest of this story is continued at Images, Tables, and Mysterious Gaps:
Setting images to be blocks
The first choice, and one that will work for most graphically-intense designs, is to convert the image from being an inline element to a block-level element. Do that, and it no longer generates a line box, and so the problem goes away-- assuming that the image is the only thing that occupies that table cell. In the simplest case, we might add a style like this:
td img {display: block;}
My suspicion is that the white space within the markup (e.g., the newlines and tabs that make the table code nicely legible) are at fault. I've encountered similar issues before, where space in the markup resulted in annoying space on the screen, even where it would appear not to matter (e.g., between <li> tags).
Try collapsing the table markup onto a single lengthy line.
Not sure why the space occurs. As far as a fix goes, if you don't mind explicitly setting a height for your table cell, you can add display:block; and height:60px; to your td styles.
The first DOCTYPE will render your page in almost standards mode:
"Almost standards" mode rendering matches "standards" mode in all details except for one. The layout of images inside table cells is handled the same way "quirks" mode operates.
The second DOCTYPE will render your page in standards mode.
