Brett,
I don’t design for bucks (hopefully someday). I don’t readily see the specific cause of having two blank spaces in your nav bar - but some observations (I’m using latest FireFox):

- Some of the menu items don’t go anywhere
- Your doc type is “strict” but Xhtml validation fails – numerous errors

What I like to do:
- Create pages that validate (the validator helps me troubleshoot).
- Have one external style sheet

So, if it were me (which it aint):
- I would pull the inline style out and just link to one external style sheet
- Tidy up your code – make sure it validates without errors (go with Transitional doc type if necessary).
- check all the links

Even if doing all the above doesn’t solve your problem (be slightly surprised if it doesn’t), you will have cleaner document and it will be easier to trouble shoot any remaining probs.

Thoughts from a wana-be page builder for hire,

Hola neighbor :-)

I'd agree with Will on most counts (especially having so much css on the page itself). Also, you might note that you misspelled "index" (inex.html) in the link code

I couldn't, however, get an additional list item to appear in any browser I checked (Safari, Firefox, ie 5.2, Opera, Netscape... all Mac)
