Image Aligning XHTML 1.0 Strict

[kestrel]

I have a problem, im trying to make my mebsite, XHTML 1.0 strict, and im going great, but i need my images to be aligned, touching together.

with regular html, i can just put

<img src="index.html" alt="Home" width="70" height="30">

but since im using XHTML 1.0 Strict i have to end img tags with <img />
so when i make it

<img src="index.html" alt="Home" width="70" height="30" />

the images now have a space inbetween each other.

how do i correct this?


note:
im going to be using external css, and im going to format each image with external css, and im going to just put class="menu" in each image instead of all those html atributes.
is there a css 'cure' for this problem?

The space is not to do with the /> tag ending, it is more likely that you have your images like this

[html]
<img src="index.html" alt="Home" width="70" height="30" />
<img src="index.html" alt="Home" width="70" height="30" />
[/html]and the space appears because you have whitespace between the images, a new line.

You can remove the border on link images with this CSS

[html]
a img {
border: none;
}
[/html]
