Well im making a webpage and I need some help. I have a table and want JUST the table to be a colour. If I put that makes the whole page that color. Would I have to put it as some sort of frame? Heh here is what Ive got so far.
New Page 2
Thanks to everyone that helped. I got it. Now im going to try and explain this next problem as clear as possable. I have my "Table" and I want another table beside it. Like this.

See? Beside eachother. But when i try it wont let me. I only get that smaller table followed by the big one underneathe. Help?
Or to use nested tables, (I did that on the original More spybot help page but changed it so all Browsers would be able to read. ) Here's an example of nested tables with assorted colors. Everything is bordered and has a different backgrond color. Too much! But an example:
Nested tables
I'm in the first table.
I am another table.
In the td Tag, use bgcolor and each one can have a different backgroind color. Also, you can have the Page's background, the table's background too. And if you use borders, they can have a color.
If that picture is how you want it to look, with very little space in between, it can be done. Did you want an empty space in between these?
Have a look at this html. The first table looks solid. The second table further down the page has cellspacing so each row has a space separating it from the next row. You may need an invisible spacer here. Not sure. And how long the text is in each table will change how everything looks. There is RowSpan to take care of that. We'll help. Post your html using the Code tags.

Alright… That what I have now. Please im beggin you. Can you put a table beside that one so I know what do do for the future. Just I guess in lamins terms, do it for me so I know what to do in furtue… Yeah dont have to if you dont want to but it would make things a lot easier… heh. Thanks in advance.,
Here you go. I always use different bgcolors when I am confused to map out what's what. Your right table consists of two rows with one td in each. . One is purple and the other is red. That way you know where to add. Leave the structure. But you can add more td's and tr's if you like. Keep them inside the second table, though. Another thing I do is this. Before I start making big changes. I always make a copy of what I have, That way, if I mess up and can't get back, I can just delete and have lost nothing.
Sure. No problem.
If you want to upload it, a few of us can go over to be sure it renders ok in different Browsers. And depending on what you want to do, it can be rewritten not using nested tables if need be.

EDIT: Here's a link to a really great Table Tutorial. I used it to learn. It's clear and teaches what you need to know.
