I have two pages that should be using the exact same template and layout.
The correct item layout can be seen below. http://dokha.co/index.php/medwakh/custom-medwakh-fro
Ok, first thing: the layouts are slightly different because in the first example, you have simple product and in the second example you have a configurable product.
So, view.phtml is including different templates in each.
Regardless though, the actually culprit of the expanded space you are seeing in the second example is being caused by a clearing div. Simply remove it.
The div you are looking for is this:
<div class="clearer"></div>
and you will find it in app/design/frontend/your_package/your_theme/template/catalog/product/view.phtml
