IE background image placement problem

I've been strugglign this for an entire day now and I can't for the life of me figure out what i'm doing wrong. It's never happened to me before so I have no idea what IS happening let alone deal with it. I've tried messing around with margins and padding but it doesn't work. The images below will describe the problem.

That's how it renders in IE.

And this is how it renders in FF:

It's fine in FF but in IT the middle part is misaligned...

This is how i'm placing the images in the code:
Code:
               <table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" height="100%" width="180">
               <tr>
               <td width="10"><img src="corner_left_top.gif" border='0'/></td>
               <td width="100%" style="background-image: url(top.gif); background-repeat: repeat-x;"></td>
               <td width="10"><img src="corner_right_top.gif"  border='0'/></td>
              </tr>
              </table>


That table is contained within another table. Can someone please explain to me why this is happening ONLY in IE all over my code....

padding

IE adds 1px padding to table cells. (just one of the many reasons to not use tables to structure page layout)
I don't know if givng the table "cellpadding: 0" is enough. Try giving each cell "padding: 0" or better yet, lose the table.
