Spacing under HTML table rows

[davidf85]

I am working on a page that has about 20 lines of php that I am placing below a table row.

I have HTML content in the Table, and PHP code echoes another table row, but between the previous HTML row and

the php echoed row, is a lot of white space.

I am wondering if there is a way to keep the rows tight.

Can you show code?

<tr>
   <td align=center>
   <b>Classified Market</b> <br>
   United States<br>
   New Jersey<br>
   Atlantic County<br>
   <i>Animals</i><br><br><br>
   </td>
   </tr>

MOD EDIT: code tags added.

When posting code, enclose it within the forum's

 . . . 

BBCode tags.

My guess would be that it's because you nest a table in a <td> here:

<tr>
<td>

<table>

 

Then the next thing you echo is a line break <br>. The markup is invalid.

just another thing, don't use breaks (<br />) to style your pages or tables it will get messy very fast. It's fine to use them inside a paragraph, but that is pretty much it in my opinion. Besides that if you have an online example or the actual html output (ctrl+u) so without the serverside  code (php)
