Help! Mysterious blank space in table cell.

I'm making a new design and testing it online at http://www.gcwonline.us/v4/shows/slam/index.php

I've put text in the top table cell with the header would go (click on one of the other sections to see the header). In this particular page that I have linked you too, you will notice that there's a blank space under it. I've looked high and low and I can't find a solution to this.

It should also be noted that this happens on some of the other pages when there's no content in the cell beneath the cell where the header would go....if that makes any sense lol.

Can anyone please help me with this? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance.

You could try losing the height attribute of that cell, let the content determine the height:

Code:
<td width="4" rowspan="2" height="100%" background="../../images/design/leftborder.jpg"></td>
        <td height="161" width="580">Notice: Whenever there's content in this cell, there's
          a blank space under that content.</td>
If you still have space underneath, post an example with the content you intend to be there.

Try validating your page first, that might clear up some problems.

I tried both of those suggestions, neither one of them worked. I've posted the content that I want there, but there's still a space underneath it.
