I'd appreciate any help with this. I'm not sure why, but when I view this page in IE:

http://dineonyourdesign.googlepages.com/presskit.html

There is a small white gap in the layout. When viewed in Firefox, the gap does not appear. I imagine this is probably something I've brainfarted on. Thanks for taking the time to read this.

Make sure you don't have any space here:

<img src="footer.gif" border="0">

</td>
It should look like this:

<img src="footer.gif" border="0"></td>

Good luck!

It also cleaned up by adding an extra line break at the end of the table. So very strange.

Since you're not using any doctype, strange things will happen, and they will happen differently in different browsers. However, if it you manage to get it working the way you want then I guess it's not a problem. You may encounter difficulties if you want to redesign in the future.

It's recommended to use a valid doctype (http://www.alistapart.com/articles/doctype/) and to validate (http://validator.w3.org/) your page. You should also try not to use tables (http://www.alistapart.com/articles/doctype/) for layout and design. That will make your site more cross-browser compatible.

Good luck!
