No more cellspacing, roll on border-collapse!
Confused as to why applying a css margin:0px and padding:0px doesn't remove the gaps between cells in tables? You need border-collapse.
The cellpadding and cellspacing attributes are not deprecated in HTML 4 (and not even in XHTML 1.1), however, looking to the future I like to use CSS where possible.
The following css demonstrates how to remove the gaps on all tables:
TABLE {
border-collapse: collapse;
}
