I have an image that I am using and trying to put a solid border around it and it keeps leaving this space below the image. Here is the image CSS tag:

#image2 {
position:absolute;
top:400px;
left:340px;
border-color:black;
border-width:4px;
border-style:solid;
height:322px; /* For IE5/Win's benefit height = [correct height] + [top padding] + [top and bottom border widths] */
voice-family: "\"}\"";
voice-family:inherit;
height:320px;
}

Can anyone help me with this simple issue that I cannot figure out.

Peace

We may need to see more of your code (primarily, the HTML that displays the image).

I was suspicious of that. Don't say

<div id="image">
<IMG SRC="DieselJeanFront.jpg" WIDTH="220" HEIGHT="280" BORDER="0" ALT="DieselJeanFront.jpg (7726 bytes)">
</div>

say

<IMG SRC="DieselJeanFront.jpg" id="image" WIDTH="220" HEIGHT="280" BORDER="0" ALT="DieselJeanFront.jpg (7726 bytes)">

You're applying the border to the DIV, not the image. Removing the white space between the image and div tags might have done it, also, but this is the better way overall.

Oh, by the way, don't use an ID for this! Use a class! You have three identical style sheets. If for some reason you didn't want to use a class, you should have said

#image, #image2, #image3 {
...
}

instead of having three separate style sheets.

But do this:

.image {
...
}

and then use class="image" instead of id, because you can use the same class for each image - no need to have multiple ids.
