hieght code, but only in firefox.

Validate it, fix the errors, and then come back.

First I have to inform you that there are many discussions about "table
layout" in the moment, perhaps you should read one of them... The thing
is: Using Tables in HTML to structure your page nowadays (with CSS
("Cascading Style Sheet" if you never heard the term) available) are
considered to be outdated. And even if you use tables for your layout
you should size them using CSS, then you should have no
compatibility-problems. If you really had not heard anything about CSS
than I suggest you to learn it...

And, please, while doing that, get rid of that tiny peekaboo window
containing the content. It is like trying to read a newspaper through
the mail slot in my front door.

What sort of software generated those pages?

If you do not know how to validate: click this link to see the results

If you don't want to read all the errors: the error causing your problem
is the missing end-tag "</table>".
But, please, fix all errors, it is horrible to look at your code...

Yep looks ridiculous on my monitor if I maximize the browser and God
help you if you enlarge the text!

I'd say Adobe, like GoLive

Yeah, it does not look that good, it's like the author tried to center
everything in the middle of the page, but did a bad job of it.

Thanks all for your replies!

I made this site about 8 or 9 years ago (when I was about 16) and the
purpose of it's application is still good enough to keep up. I think I
used Frontpage along with ImageReady, or some other Adobe software, to
break apart the images I designed.

I liked the idea of having the peep window and since there isn't much
content (and probably never will be) it's most likely going to stay
like that till things change in the partnership.

It's obviouse that I'm not a professional web designer but, when asked,
I'll try anything if it seems worth it.

In any case, I'm going to follow the suggestions you all posted and let
you know how it turns out. Thanks for taking the time to respond to my
problem. I know a lot of you get frusterated when someone doesn't know
what their doing tries to get in over their head.

Cheers to you all and I'll keep you update,
