dream weaver cs4 design looks different in live view (browser view)

good day! im new to dream weaver cs4. i am just starting to develop a dynamic page. i layout in the design area of DW cs4. i have 2 main tables. the first one is for the heading and below is for the content. i used an empty table between the two main tables to serve as a separator. now when i viewed it in my browser, the distance becomes so big. is it normal with DW? please help me! replies are really appreciated..

This is normal with dreamweaver (at least for me it is). In live view things are usually skewed, especially when working with various CSS styles. That's why I don't pay much attention to it. My advice is to rely solely on the browser.
