newbie problems alignment in tables

[komosalab]

Hi folks, I'm new to CSS and kind of lazy when it comes to coding, but I've tried to do this page by the book and it has a weird problem.

I've created a table with a particular background (specified by CSS) for certain cells. It looks great but when I put an IMG html in that cell, the background for that cell escapes the borders and is all out of alignment. The contents of the cell always seem to move to the top and the middle of the page. I'm checking everything works in IE6 and Firefox but this problem only occurs in IE6...

you can view the page at http://komosa.brinkster.net/shop2.html

the stylesheet is http://komosa.brinkster.net/content2.css

If anyone can figure out what causes this I'd very grateful! Maybe I need to set some alignment attributes for IMG....

I'd suggest that you learn to use CSS properly rather than having tables stuck in there.
It's not a difficult layout and there is absolutely no need for the tables. You should also get the comment syntax correct

it is <!-- comment --> not <! COMMENT >
