Ok, several issues here.

1) Images/filesize/loadtimes. For one, you have far more graphics than you actually need. Many of them are also far larger than they need to be (pixel-wise as well as file size). The over-complexity of your table is also a part of the poor load time, and is what is causing your menu to break up.

2) Personally, for this type of layout I would forget about tables altogether. You can find some nice tutorials on CSS layouts over here - http://www.gurusnetwork.com/tutorials/coding/
Incidentally, you can also find one on tables that may be of some help.

Basically the problem can be remedied by setting the menu all in one <td> and setting the valign="top" for that <td>.
If that doesn't do it, set two <td>'s on the left, with the top having a fixed height, and the bottom a height of 100%, and the right <td> will need a rowspan set.

Ok, but what if i use frames so the top part of the layout doesnt need to load each time??, does it make sense??, I find those tutorials interesting but im really running out of time :-s and im not even half way done (this is my first website)

thanks for ur help
