This fix works a treat until you try to show up a complete row with nothing in it. Then I found setting an IE specific height on the cells is required. table { border-collapse:collapse; and empty-cells: show; } table tr td{height: 1px; width: 1px; padding: 0px; _height: 1em;} CSS is a bit lazy, should have the full IE hack if you care about CSS validation of course. And you will have to have a bit of a play with the padding / height to get the sizes exact, but using em should eventually sort your rows out as well.. Cheers and thanks for the initial post.

table
{
border-collapse:collapse; and empty-cells: show;
}
table tr td{height: 1px; width: 1px; padding: 0px; _height: 1em;}

I've been working on a legacy system with embedded tables for layout, and this one was driving me crazy! Everyone else was talking about how IE doesn't support empty-cells, but you're the first to give a workaround that really worked! Saved me a trip to the crazy house... Thanks!
