A picture (or a link to a problem page) is worth a thousand words.
My interpretation of your description leads to this solution:
<table>
<tr>
<td valign="top">
<table>
Links go here
</table>
</td>
<td valign="top">
<table>
Content goes here
</table>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
Do not set heights for tables or cells - let them find their own levels.
The links and content will be aligned at the top of the outer table.
