I'm writing a table and Firefox doesn't render it correctly:

<table border="1" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width='270'>
  <tr>
    <td width='20'>&nbsp;</td>
    <td width='3' height='172'></td>
    <td colspan='2' width='226'>226x172</td>
    <td width='8' height='172'></td>
    <td width='13'>&nbsp;</td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td width='20'>&nbsp;</td>
    <td width='3' height='26'></td>
    <td width='136' height='26'>136x26</td>
    <td colspan='2' width='98' height='26'>98x26</td>
    <td width='13'>&nbsp;</td>
  </tr>
</table>

the 4th cell of the 2nd and 3rd row, infact, are rendered with same size while they are not.

This HTML code render correctly:

<table border="1" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width='270'>
  <tr>
    <td width='20' height='1'></td>
    <td width='3'></td>
    <td width='136'></td>
    <td width='90'></td>
    <td width='8'></td>
    <td width='13'></td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td width='20'>&nbsp;</td>
    <td width='3' height='172'></td>
    <td colspan='2' width='226'>226x172</td>
    <td width='8' height='172'></td>
    <td width='13'>&nbsp;</td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td width='20'>&nbsp;</td>
    <td width='3' height='26'></td>
    <td width='136' height='26'>136x26</td>
    <td colspan='2' width='98' height='26'>98x26</td>
    <td width='13'>&nbsp;</td>
  </tr>
</table>

Can someone explain me why?

The wrong html is:

< table border="1" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width='270'> 

 < tr>
   < td width='20'> </td>
   < td width='3' height='172'></td>
   < td colspan='2' width='226'>226x172</td>
   < td width='8' height='172'></td>
   < td width='13'> </td>
 < /tr>
 < tr>
   < td width='20'> </td>
   < td width='3' height='26'></td>
   < td width='136' height='26'>136x26</td>
   < td colspan='2' width='98' height='26'>98x26</td>
   < td width='13'> </td>
 </tr>

</table>

While the good one is: < table border="1" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width='270'> 

 < tr>
   < td width='20' height='1'></td>
   < td width='3'></td>
   < td width='136'></td>
   < td width='90'></td>
   < td width='8'></td>
   < td width='13'></td>
 < /tr>
 < tr>
   < td width='20'> </td>
   < td width='3' height='172'></td>
   < td colspan='2' width='226'>226x172</td>
   < td width='8' height='172'></td>
   < td width='13'> </td>
 < /tr>
 < tr>
   < td width='20'> </td>
   < td width='3' height='26'></td>
   < td width='136' height='26'>136x26</td>
   < td colspan='2' width='98' height='26'>98x26</td>
   < td width='13'> </td>
 </tr>

</table>

A good place to ask advice about web development is at the MozillaZine "Web Development/Standards Evangelism" forum.

The helpers at that forum are more knowledgeable about web development issues.
You need to register at the MozillaZine forum site in order to post at that forum.
