[thelist] Firebird not liking table in xhtml

[Andrew Martin]

I have a table that Imageready made; I took an image, made slices, exported
it, made it validate in XHTML but now Firebird is showing big gaps between
the <tr> tags and it's bleeding into non-tabled content at times.

When I remove the XHTML Strict declaration, the table renders properly.  Why
does this occur?  Any way around it without removing the declaration?

Thanks!
