A quick question for CSS gurus - GoFuckYourself.com

I have recently put up this site www.hotbluetoothnews.com which displays how I'd like it to in Firefox, yet has a huge whitespace above the adsense in IE

anybody know how I can use CSS to snug this up to the top ??

Thanks in advance

do you have a margin or padding some where?

or a crazy text-align: something

Table with adsense is too widest. You must change cellpadding="10" to "0" and set cellspacing to "6" (maximum). Otherwise IE can't put this table in the right place. In FireFox table has 500 pixels width (including 10 pixels of cellpadding), but Internet Explorer is interpreting it the other way, so the table in IE has 500 pixels + 10 pixels = 510 pixels - but you have only 506 pixels free space there

You are my new found hero !!! I spent 4 hours trying to locate the problem, and had 2 CSS novice friends help me too!

I thoroughly appreciate this, and let me know if you ever need help with any graphics or something that I could repay your help

Have a Happy Easter!
