welcome to webmasterworld amovertone

you will have to put that url in your profile as we don't post url's here.

on to your code, there are a few things wrong and netscape doesn't like any of them.
Your final </table> tag closes the table but you didn't close the row or cell.
Your colspan that contains the flash table is 8 and should be 9.
You really would be better off making one complex table instead of 3.

I would start with these and then play with heights and widths and it will go away.

also your widths don't add up. this row
<tr>
<td rowspan="2" colspan="2"><a href="index.html"><img name="logo" src="images/logo.gif" width="335" height="52" border="0"></a></td>
<td colspan="5"><img name="topofnav" src="images/topofnav.gif" width="210" height="19" border="0"></td>
<td rowspan="2"><img name="top" src="images/top.gif" width="205" height="52" border="0"></td>
<td><img src="images/spacer.gif" width="1" height="19" border="0"></td>
</tr>

is 751 wide which is wider than your table
the next row only has 8 cells, including the rowspans above
you could also try adding valign=top to the flash ceel to see if that brings it a little tighter
