Table style border- outlook 2010 adds an extra space
I created an HTML for email marketing. I placed a table, and applied a border around it:
<table border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" style="border:1px solid #982676; margin:0 16px;">
For some reason I am getting 1 pixel extra white space inside when I test it in OUTLOOK 2010. I see it around images that are aligned to the top and to the left, and I see it around other cells that have a solid background color.
See image at this link:screenshot
The top triangle is an image in a cell by itself. The bottom rectangle is a cell with a background color. These were supposes to stick to the border. This is a recurring problem. Has anyone encountered this issue before?
Answer
Campaign monitor has a really great solution on how to solve this type of problem. Simple add this style code to your table elements. The code below solved my problem (same as OP) on Outlook 2010
<table align="left" style="border-collapse:collapse; mso-table-lspace:0pt; mso-table-rspace:0pt;"> ... </table>
If that doesn't work, try this. http://www.emailonacid.com/blog/details/C13/removing_unwanted_spacing_or_gaps_between_tables_in_outlook_2007_2010
