I believe it is.

Start with a doctype so your not in quirks mode, and put up a url.

Then we can see whats going on.

Thanks for your reply but this still leaves a pretty large gap between
the rows (unless I am doing something very wrong).

Most likely, but who can tell, you have not supplied us a link to your
attempt.

There is no gap between the rows. You may be perceiving the space above and
below the content (the numbers). This is simply the normal way text is layed
out. If you want to change that then you should fiddle with line-height,
probably on the <td>:
td {line-height: .8em}
but why do you want to do this anyway?

Maybe this can help you

tr {margin: 0; padding: 0;}
td {margin: 0; padding: 0 5 0 5;}

Thanks to all who responded.

rf - yes, it was solved by line-height (I guess the other respondents
knew that but I seemed to be asking for something different :-)

Of course, this is example only ;-) 5 units what author used. Somebody prefer

em, other pt or px.

td and tr don't know "margin". tr doesn't know "padding". [1]

Yes, but I don't know if author use css2.1 or css2.0 and don't know too if all

browser really know about w3c reccomendation :-) Sometime is better to write
needless rule instead of not write this absurd rule ;-)
