Someone asked me to help figure out why there was a huge gap between the beginning of her page and the body content, but I feel like an idiot because I can't. I have run validators, fixed the errors but when I browse the corrected page, the gap remains. here is her URL (errors uncorrected but that didn't make a difference, as I said)http://homepages.go.com/~lucyliu1/top20.html

Any and all help would be appreciated.

I got it to eliminate the space by removing all the extra <br> tags that are inside the tables. The <br> is not needed inside a table around <td> or <tr> tags (maybe inside these but not outside).

Thank you so much! I knew that there must be either a broken tag or some runaway breaks but it never dawned on me that they were INSIDE the table!
