That's a spacer - set the font size to 4 with only a single space in the cell to create a minimum space. I didn't see that in your CSS equivalent. I know you can use CSS to duplicate table formatting, and a lot more, but even with CSS, formatting an HTML page is tedious, I avoid it if I can.

Why haven't I hired you yet? You found out about the pay, didn't you!

I guess I could have used style attributes instead of font tags and so forth, but the site's CSS styles are in files, and I usually just reference those using the class attribute. Since people creating "pictures of the month" for me wouldn't have the site's CSS styles available to check appearance on their own computer, I just didn't use CSS at all.

I guess a warming flag goes up in my mind when I see things like a FONT tag inside an empty table cell.
