That's the way the site is coded. But hey, if they're empty, why look at them?

Because I'm used to hitting "End" to get to the bottom of a topic of other forums and when i press End here i get a huge load of blankness :p

Ah, that could get a bit annoying if youre used to that.
Page down might work for you at TLR
Its not too far from END.

I dont even see the point of the gap?? Why not just change this:

<pre><font size=1 face=Courier><table align="left" height="400%" width="10" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"> </font></pre>

to this:

<pre><font size=1 face=Courier><table align="left" height="100%" width="10" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"> </font></pre>

And remove it all togeatther, Why does it need to be 400% high? Seems kinda weird.

It's not sloppiness. It has something to do with page code optimization, or so Bargib says. He claims that it actually performs better with the gap.

LOL - it does! I do know my HTML-****, and the way the site is coded there are four main tables. The first is the Header-table with the logo and stuff, then there is the left menu, right menu and at the last the center content tabel. SInce the left and right us "ALIGN=LEFT" and "ALIGN=RIGHT", and the whole is not contained into a global table (except for Mozilla/Netscape), I do not know the length of the page when I render the near to invisible left colored bar.

So I have to make sure that it is approx. as long as the whole page...

The advantage to code the page like that? That the HTML does show up in quicker at the browser. The menu and left side are rendered before the center content, and the page as a whole is PERCIVED faster....

Why is it i post and post but my post count stays at zero?

I believe that its because you have "_" in your account name.
Something with the code I guess.
Please correct me if I'm wrong.

I've GOT to fix that... argh...
