That's the way Netscape 6.x handles images in table cells when in
"standards-compliant" mode. I personally don't like it, but many would argue
that it is based on the truest reading of the CSS 2 box model.
Eric Meyer has written an article on some workarounds that might be
helpful [1]. Another workaround that I've proposed, but haven't fully
tested, is to apply "line-height: 0px ;" to all td elements which contain
images that require pixel-precise layout. If you try that, I would be
interested in your feedback on the results.
