It will take more than a minute.

No need for the screenshot, it looks the same on my computer.  So now
it is only two people's computers that are causing the problem.  :-)

Well, why don't you start with some sort of DTD, mark up the page
accordingly, and then validate it.  The HTML is a mess.  Until then, I
don't know where you should start.  You could get the bottle on the left
hand side to be at the bottom of the table by adding a  valign="bottom" to
the table cell, but really, cleaning up this mess is a lot to ask of the list.
