Huge space when text is small...
Hi everyone,
I'm having some trouble with my Web site and am wondering if anyone can help me fix it...
Unfortunately, my site isn't on the Internet at the moment as I am still working on the design and haven't done much of the content. It is red and I designed it using a basic table. The navigation menu is on the right and at the top, under the title. The problem occurs in the space where the text menu is. It looks okay when the content in the table below it is filled to the same height as the nav menu on the right, but if it has nothing in it, the text menu (not the text itself but the menu around the outside) grows larger!
I wouldn't have a clue why it does this! If it helps, I use style sheets to format my pages and use Dreamweaver. I'm also on a Mac running OS X.
Thanks in advance!

It's really kind of hard to troubleshoot without actually seeing the site...can you at least post the code and the CSS?

Sure, here's the code and I'll post the CSS below it (it's in a separate file).
Thanks for your help!
