    Too much space in IE.
    perfect in Firefox.

    ive specified the height for the div and the cell <td>

    any ideas?

    You have too many html errors like extra closing </tr> tag plus you need to remove the {...} from the style code

    should be 
    <input type="text" id="firstname" value="Name" style="border: 1px solid #498bae; color:#498bae; width:130px">

    First for the CSS to work right you need a doctype
    Second, ff and ie treats margins differently

    I don't understand why you're even using tables. You might as well just use one big image map if that's the approach you're going to take.

    that just a sidebar to another page,
    thought tables would be the quickest and universally safe way to do it, i have full control with align/valign and width values. Only other way is to use a div which seems to have huge incompatibility issues , for me anyway

    adding doctype here makes some attributes illegal
