Table within a Table

I'm fairly new with Dreamweaver and have a number of questions. For simplicity in answering I will put each subject in a different email.

I have a table within a table. (My main page is a blue border. Then I want a speck of white space, a blue stripe, and then the page that I'm writing on.)

However, the second table insists on being 1 row, 2 columns, rather than 1 row, 1 column. This creates two blue stripes on the left hand side of the page.

How can I get rid of the 2 columns -- the extra blue stripe on the left?

Thanks for your help,

there ~is~ kinda two columns..

need to fix this in code view.

at top of page, lines 18 and 19, delete this:
<tr>
<td width="0" height="10424" valign="top">&nbsp;</td>

That's the phantom column.

then at bottom of page, find this:
</blockquote>
</tr>

</table></td>
</tr>
</table>

</body>
</html>

and add </td> where shown:
</blockquote></td>
</tr>

</table></td>
</tr>
</table>

</body>
</html>

That closes the inside table cell.

yes, it's a real email address- but it's filtered to trash

Like this?

You'll need to set the background color for you page... then just paste this into the source. Try a fresh file first.

<table width="100%" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="1" bgcolor="#FFFFFF">
<tr>
<td><table width="100%" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="1" bgcolor="#000099">
<tr>
<td bgcolor="#FFFFFF">All of my Text </td>
</tr>
</table></td>
</tr>
</table>

Hope that helps.
