Why does IE do that?

This is mostly just a cosmetic problem, but it drives me insane why does IE space out everything so much? There is a huge break below the "click here to register" and another below the login button.

can you post that snippet of code? If you are using tables I am 99% sure I know what the trouble is.

 		<a href="index.php?login=register" class="links">Click here to register!</a><br />		<form name="login" method="post" action="index.php?action=login">			<font class="formtext">Username:<br /><input type="text" name="username" size="15"><br />			Password:<br /><input type="password" name="password" size="15"></font><br />			<img src="images/login-button.gif"></form>

Thats all that is in login file.And here is the table where that file is called up:

		<table height="100%" width="100%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0">						<tr>				<td><?PHP include("login.php");?></td>			</tr>		</table>

try this in the login file

					<a href="index.php?login=register" class="links">Click here to register!</a>					<br />							<form name="login" method="post" action="index.php?action=login" style="margin:0px;padding:0px">						<font class="formtext">Username:						<br />						<input type="text" name="username" size="15">						<br />						Password:						<br />						<input type="password" name="password" size="15"></font>						<br />						<img src="images/login-button.gif"><br/>					</form>

try this in the login file

<form name="login" method="post" action="index.php?action=login" style="margin:0px;padding:0px">

Worked. I guess IE doesnt default 0 for margin and padding in a form.

nope it don't also I added a <br/> to the end of the img tag because sometimes IE will actually add a line break after the image (if you don't place a <br/>) when using tables. Don't know why but it is IE
