Hello All,

I would like to "pad" the rows of my table. Cellpadding and
Cellspacing aren't an option cause they affect both the horizontal as
well as vertical axis.

So I used to do essentially a row with nothing more than one   in
it.

Then I realized thta if I removed the   my padding got smaller,
and I could use 2 or 3 and get more precise.

So my question is, is this row:

<tr><td></td></tr>

Or could not having the   in there cause a problem?

Thanks ahead, as always.

Interesting that you posted to a stylesheet newsgroups without
mentioning anything related to stylesheets. The answer is *probably*
(assuming you aren't displaying borders around the cells) to pad the
cells using the CSS properties padding-top and padding-bottom.
