div positioning problems Options

[brighten]

ok this is my first div layout and I followed everything in the tutorial down to the last period.

In safari the content is at least within the borders but I would like it to be up higher, but no matter how low I go it doesn't move up?

In firefox the content just completely goes off the borders and also the text is black when it should be gray (like the links)

I can't even begin to imagine what it looks like in IE

so here is everything I'm working with...

CODE

<style type="text/css">
.contacttable,.whitetext12,.nametext,.lightbluetext8,.orangetext15,.blacktext12,
btext,.redtext,.redbtext{display:none;height:0px;!important;visibility:hidden}
td td td td{border:0px;width:0px;text-align:left;}
table,td,tr{padding:0px;width:;background-color:transparent}
table table table{padding:1px;height:.01%;width:100%;}
table table,table table table table,table,tr,td{height:0px;!important;border:0px;!important}
a.text,table div font a,table div div,.navbar font,tr td font{visibility:hidden;display:none;height:0px;!important;}
table table table table,table table table table td.text, td.text td.text table{display:none;}
td.text table table{display:inline;visibility:visible;}
table td table tr td.text table{visibility:hidden;}
table td table tr td.text table table,table td table tr td.text table table td.text{visibility:visible;}
</style>

First off, I'm skinny, I know, I hear it enough you don't have to tell me again. I play guitar in <a href="suikodenrocks">Suikoden</a>. I've never seen the ocean. it's the first thing I'm doing when I graduate. I'm not your typical guy. neither are my friends. I like many different styles of music. as you can see on the left side of your screen. usually I'm pretty good at understanding problems, so if you need some help hollerrr. I'll see what I can do. I've been told I'm a good listener. BUT I am a blonde and you might have to run some things by me more than once. :]

again those top positions should be correct, I've tried making them smaller (even tried negatives) with no effect, everything just stays in the same position.

thanks in advance for the help
