I create a table row, and place a 5 px spacer in it, and set a cell height as 5 px.  Works great... until I save it (from the XHTML method).  This method adds a space after the image, before the <td>, which, of course, messes up the spacing.

 

Is this space required by XHTML, or is this a bug?  If not a bug, how can I get around it?
