I have a small book converted from html to EPUB and noticed that images within very simple tables don't show well on an android version of Cool Reader.

Code:

<table>
 <tr>
 <td><img src="note.jpg"></td>
 <td><b>note</b><br>NIFS Mission Statement: The National Institute
 for Fitness and Sport is committed to enhancing human health, physical
 fitness, and athletic performance through research, education, and service.</td>
 </tr>
</table>

At first they did not show at all, after some tweaking realized that the image shows only if there is little text in the right cell. Otherwise it gets scaled down until you can't see it. Explicitly setting width and height of the image did not work at all. Setting table cell width seems to help, but then the cell has some thick unspecified padding. So setting cell width to image width or a couple of pixels larger still scales the image down.
Anyway to fix that?

Another thing is the table borders - they are always there, even when i specify border="0". I surprised!
