Padding issue on HTML email
I have an issue with excess padding appearing around either the table or image on mobile with a HTML email signature and I'm unable to find the solution.
I must of tried every single solution I have researched including:
- Adding display:block to the image
- Adding a line-height: 1px to the td
- Adding font-size: 0; to the td
- Making sure every section had padding: 0; and margin: 0;
- Adding cellpadding="0" and cellspacing="0" to all tables, tr and td elements
- Adding width and height to the table and td (which didn't have any effect)
- Adding float: left and align="left"
- Adding table-layout:fixed;
- Adding border: 0; border-spacing: 0; and border-collapse; on elements
The issue seems to appear on Samsung and iPhone devices that I have tested.
Any new suggestions would be appreciated.
The image that specifically has extra spacing is here:
<table align="left" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" style="border-collapse: collapse; border-spacing: 0; table-layout:fixed; mso-table-lspace:0pt;mso-table-rspace:0pt; padding:0; margin: 0; float:left; line-height: 1px; font-size: 0;" width="180">
<tr style="padding: 0; margin: 0;">
<td valign="bottom" style="padding:0 25px 0 0; margin:0; font-size: 0 !important;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><img src="logo.png" width="" alt="" style="display: block !important;"></td>
</tr>
</table>
How here is the entire code as I have two tables side by side which may be the cause of the issue:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<style>
a {
color: #00001b;
text-decoration: underline;
}
table {
padding: 0;
margin: 0;
display: block;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<table style="font-family: Helvetica, sans-serif; max-width: 367px;" width="100%" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">
<tr>
<td>
<table style="border-bottom: 3px solid #000; padding-bottom: 8px;" width="367" cellspacing="0">
<tr style="padding: 0; margin: 0;">
<td cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" style="border-collapse: collapse; mso-table-lspace:0pt;mso-table-rspace:0pt; padding:0; margin: 0;" border="0" height="10">
<table align="left" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" style="border-collapse: collapse; border-spacing: 0; table-layout:fixed; mso-table-lspace:0pt;mso-table-rspace:0pt; padding:0; margin: 0; float:left; line-height: 1px; font-size: 0;" width="180">
<tr style="padding: 0; margin: 0;">
<td valign="bottom" style="padding:0 25px 0 0; margin:0; font-size: 0 !important;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><img src="logo.png" width="" alt="" style="display: block !important; padding: 0; margin: 0;"></td>
</tr>
</table>
<table align="left" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" style="border-collapse: collapse; border-spacing: 0; mso-table-lspace:0pt;mso-table-rspace:0pt; margin: 0; padding: 0 0 7px 0; line-height:1px; font-size:0; float:left;">

Code it like an email! Try the hybrid method! This method allows you to cater for outlook email clients and the use of divs means you dont have to worry about the extra gaps.
<table style="font-family: Helvetica, sans-serif; max-width: 367px;" width="100%" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">
<tr>
<td>
<table style="border-bottom: 3px solid #000; padding-bottom: 8px;" width="367" cellspacing="0">
<tr style="padding: 0; margin: 0;">
<td style="text-align: center; vertical-align: top; font-size: 0px; padding: 0px; width: 367px;">
<!--[if (gte mso 9)|(IE)]>
<table width="367" align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0">
<tr>
<td align="left" valign="top" width="180">
<![endif]-->
<div style="width: 180px; display: inline-block; vertical-align: top;">

You may want to add a </td><td> between your two tables. I've also moved the 25px padding to the left of the copy, rather than the image. (I've assumed the img dimensions here). This looked ok on my EoA previews, if it doesn't help could you post a screenshot of your issue?
