Advice for newbie on code for table

First of all, Hi everyone! I'm learning to code html and while I no some of the basics, you can tell I really don't know squat.<br />
<br />
I decided to put up a page with all of my favorite links to forums, tech issues, program Download <!--more-->s, etc so that I can switch back and forth or keep a second browser window open with this page loaded. I just loaded a page "mylink2" to my webspace for you all to look at for me. Notice that the cells in the table are not equal in size. How do I fix this?<br />
<br />

Here's the code I have so far for the table:<br />

Thanks, <br />
Bill<!--content-->By not being the same in size, do you mean just the width? Or both width and height?<br />
For width, make each TD 50 percent of the TABLE (ie. put ' width="50%" ' in all the TD tags.<br />
For the height, remove the BR tags.<br />
Am I any help?<!--content-->Ok, thanks! That fixed the width but now the height in the first row is much bigger than the second.<br />
