Tables - Inner

[Dennis D.]

FrontPage 2000:
Hello:
My page table width is 760px, with 0px padding, 0px border, 0px margins
There are two columns: 162px and 598px, left and right respectively.

When I put a table inside the larger right column of the page table, I size
the inner table also at 598px.
The cells of the inner table are also set at 598, 0-0-0.
There is a 2-4px (difficult to tell how many pixels exactly) space,
definately noticable, between the inner table border on the right side and
the right side of the page table.

That is, the cells of the inner table do not buck up against the right
border of the outer page table, leaving a few pixels of empty space along
the full right side of the inner table. Is it possible to make the cells of
the inner table flush against the outer table right border?

The effect messes up the page layout. HR's and cell colors fall off at the
edge of the inner table.

There are reasons for having an inner table.

Thanks,
Dennis D.

Try this

<div align="center"><table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="760"><tr>
<td width="598"></td><td width="162">
<table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%">
<tr><td></td></tr></table>
</td></tr></table></div>

Thank you Stefan B Rusynko. That worked. Can you tell me why it worked, and
why the 598px specification did not work? Will that solution work across
browsers, expecially Mozilla?

This seems that is will also cure the auto resizing problem with columns,
when resizing the table, if the columns are specified as percentages. True?

Thanks again,

The inner table w/ 598px instead of 100% will work too
- I just don't over dimension nested tables
