<table border=&quot;0&quot; align=&quot;center&quot; BGCOLOR=&quot;#FFFFFF&quot; width=&quot;300&quot;>
<tr align=&quot;center&quot; bgcolor=&quot;#ffff00&quot;>
<td align=&quot;center&quot;><font color=&quot;#ff0099&quot; size=&quot;4&quot;>Visit Our Stores</font></font></td>
</tr><tr>
<td align=center valign=top>
<!--BEGIN STORES-->
<!-- Begin Copy For Redirection Menu -->
<*****snip*****>
<!-- END Redirection Menu -->
</center>
<!--END STORES-->
</td></tr></table>


The above shows where we've added the menu to the table that has the heading for the menu.... I snipped the redirect code itself... but the beginning and end is in the code above as it was on your site...

So does this mean that I just have to live with it?[nbsp][nbsp]:(

Try putting your <form> and </form> tags around your table tags. Most of the time this will remove the extra space that forms create...

The code I posted above fixes it the way you want it... try replacing what you have... with what I added above...

The only thing missing is the long code snippet of the redirection menu itself just to help save forum space.[nbsp][nbsp]Make sure you put that part in there as well....

Netscape is *extremely* picky with tables.[nbsp][nbsp]To care for this, you'll need to run a full inspection/validation on the entire page.[nbsp][nbsp]It's quite possible Netscape is demanding more perfection from the entire site to fix that area... I'd suggest heading over to aota.net and running an html validation check on the site... fixing anything/everything that pops up and working your way through it from there.[nbsp][nbsp]

If the local fixes aren't helping it -- it's gotta be something not as close to home.[nbsp][nbsp]On a good note, you've got 45% of the problem solved, since IE is showing it correctly ;)

Three things:

1) You have two </font> tags, but only one <font> tag,
2) The page takes a *really* long time to load, and
3) You have a JavaScript error on the page...

Haven't looked in NetScape, though, only IE5, and there is no space at all here...
