I want to add margin-top to the image so that the image will be shifted downward by some 3 or 4 pixel but the CSS is not having any effect. Please help.
Also I found that cellspacing is not a valid attribute in HTML5. Any alternate property to achieve the same effect.?

Answer 1

Adding a negative bottom margin to your image
(I generally avoid using negative margins as much as possible, but in this case it's a quick fix and won't effect the text next to it) :
td img {
margin-bottom:-4px;
}

Answer 2

Its working for me.. Anyhow you can try like this LINK, if you want to place img and text in same line
CSS:
td,td img {
line-height:28px;
vertical-align:middle;
}

Answer 3

Alternative for cellspacing is
table {
border-collapse: separate;
border-spacing: 15px;
}
Aligning image:
You can use vertical-align:middle.
See DEMO here.

Answer 4

Margin-top should work correctly, but it probably moves down tha label too.
Possible solution is to use positioning, so:
img {position: relative; top: 4px;}

Answer 5

you can do this.
Just remove <lable> tag & add valign="top" in <td>
<table cellspacing="15">
<tr>
<td valign="top">
<img src="Images/user1.png" />
User
</td>
<td>
John
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td valign="top">
<img src="Images/version1.png" />
Old ID
</td>
<td>
345345
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td valign="top">
<img src="Images/version3.png" />
New ID
</td>
<td>
367976
</td>
</tr>
