I have designed a site in Dreamweaver 8 on my PC (http://www.alisonjeffery.com/)and it looks fine with the flash against the top in IE, but on my mac in firefox and safari it's got a huge gap. There is a margin: 0px in the CSS in the head and the cell is set to 0 height to squeeze it tightly, but no luck. What is one to do?

Safari and Firefox were rendering it correctly. IE is not. It's the H1's inherit margin.
To fix it:

Take the height attribute off of the TD.
Remove the H1 around the Object tag.

Should look like this:

<td valign="top" colspan="3"><div align="center" class="style1">
<object width="740" height="150" wmode="transparent" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=7,0,19,0" classid="clsid27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000">
<param value="title.swf" name="movie"/>
<param value="high" name="quality"/>
<param value="transparent" name="wmode"/>
<embed width="740" height="150" wmode="transparent" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" quality="high" src="title.swf"/>
</object>
</div></td>

... without the smiley of course.
