hi greg

actually, the logo is more or less in the centre of the page   ;o)

i see no space in ie4 or nn6 -- you musta fixed it already

sometimes nn6 causes table layout problems if you have the wrong DTD

remember the thread from sathish yesterday?    see

  Does Netscape 6 Break Your Table Layouts?

there's a good tutorial here --
http://pagetutor.com/pagetutor/tables/index.html

also, try the w3c site, they have some good examples --
http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40/struct/tables.html


in your case, you could actually break the table up into several stacked
tables -- one for each of your rows

that way you wouldn't have to use colspans (which can often cause layout
problems in themselves)

plus, stacked tables render faster


good luck
