Actually, I just figured it out!
It's the 3 pictures that Auctiva pulls horizontally into the top cell. 3 pics @ 400 pixels + cell spacing, padding, etc is what did it.
When I go to 2 pics, everything seems to be fine. I guess one can't use 3 horizontal pics within the type of table I am trying to create. Either less pics or place them out side the cells, methinks...
Thanks for the advice on the body tags, ect.
