Specifies when to include width and height attributes for table data: Always, Never, or Auto (the recom-

mended setting).

Spacer Cells

Specifies when to add one row and one column of empty spacer cells around the generated table: Auto

(the recommended setting), Auto (Bottom), Always, Always (Bottom), or Never. For table layouts in which slice
boundaries do not align, adding spacer cells can prevent the table from breaking apart in some browsers.
