I think this is the right forum to post this question in...

I am having problems when I add text the stretches one of my tables past my original preset height. I thought I added a spot that would stretch, but it isn't. It's supposed to look like...

but when I preview it, or upload it, it looks like...(Well when I add the text of course)

Here is the part I want to stretch...

What am I doing wrong?

The text you put in bold is this image below...

I added another <td> below that set hoping that would be the <td> that would stretch, but it isn't...

The code in the bold and red is the <td> that I'd like to stretch vertically when I add text to my document...but I'd like the rest of the html document to stay the same...
