My template mod does not like NN47

Okay - I know it's not the nested table as the main page of my site is the same and it's viewing fine and load quickly in NN 4.7

When I apply my template modifications to the site... it looks great in IE 5.5, Opera, Mozilla, and NN6 - in NN 4.7 it tries to load and then says "connecting" and then hangs up... And every now and then after about 3-4 minutes the board will actually come up... any suggestions? Here is my coding below - thanks!!!

The site URL is: http://www.scrapbook-bytes.com/chat/
