Hi I'm currently studying webdesign [total novice] and I've been given the task to make a single web page.
I've designed it and got so far but now it's come to put tables inside tables and the problem is I was spacing between the outside and inside table.

I'm not allowed to use CSS or anything like that just simple HTML.

Here is the coding I have done so far:

CODE
<html>
<!--Page Name -->
<head>
<title>Laurell K Hamilton</title>
</head>

<!--Body Setup-->
<body><body bgcolor="BLACK">
<center>

<!--table setup-->
<table border="solid" border="3" bordercolor="#ffffff" width="800" background="http://i277.photobucket.com/albums/kk76/missfable/Nightsky.jpg">

<!-- logo cell-->
<tr>
<td colspan="2">
<img src="http://i277.photobucket.com/albums/kk76/missfable/logo.png">
</td>

<!--name cell-->
<td colspan="3" width ="439"> cell 2</td>

<!--- Nav Bar -->
<tr>
<td width ="160"><font color=white size="3" face="veranda">Home</font></td>
<td width ="160"><font color=white size="3" face="veranda">Biography</font></td>
<td width ="160"><font color=white size="3" face="veranda">Books</font></td>
<td width ="160"><font color=white size="3" face="veranda">News Archives</font></td>
<td width ="160"><font color=white size="3" face="veranda">Tour Info</font></td>
</font>

<!--Main body -->
<tr>
<td rowspan="5" colspan="5" height= "500" >
cell 2
</td>
</tr>
</table>


</center>
</body>
</html>



And here is the mockup of the webpage I'm a trying to create.

Any help would be amazing!

Thank you =]

OK, but the HTML you posted only has one table.

Yes sorry I'm trying to put extra tables inside the one I've made so far - as in the layout in the picture.
