Sorry if this is a silly question - I've searched everywhere and I haven't been able to find a solution to my problem.

Basically I'm creating an EDM and even though I have spacing and padding down as 0 in all of my table tags (that contain info) there still seems to be padding within it.

Some table tags do have cell spacing but that's only for the tables acting as breakers between other tables. EDM's are a little bit of a bi@tch to get consistent across all email clients so you might see a few funny things going on within my code.

Hopefully you guys can spot something I'm missing.

Thanks for your help :)

  • That's a LOT of code. Have you narrowed down at all where the error might be occurring? I'd recommend [paring this down to as little code as possible while still reproducing the problem](https://stackoverflow.com/help/mcve). – Andrew LaPrise Sep 17 '15 at 01:19
  • True, sorry - I'm at the end of my rope so I'm just blasting this all at once. I'll do that now and update the post. Cheers – fentale Sep 17 '15 at 01:22
  • Forgive my ignorance but what is an EDM? It is a pretty vague acronym https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/EDM – Mike D. Sep 17 '15 at 01:26
  • EDM = Electronic Distributed Mail which is a HTML stylised email. In my experience a lot of businesses refer to them as EDM's but maybe it's an Aussie thing? Not sure – fentale Sep 17 '15 at 01:33
  • @AndrewLaPrise I've cut the code down and it's still reproducing the problem - wish I could include a snapshot. I'm thinking it might be the TD tags that make up the middle column? I haven't specified a height because I'm trying to keep it as simple as possible so Gmail and Outlook don't freak out but I've given it a try and it still doesn't make a difference - in chrome or in the test email I send. – fentale Sep 17 '15 at 01:38
  • :( this is so crazy - I still can't figure out what's wrong. – fentale Sep 21 '15 at 22:06
