Layout tables are a way of laying out a page using tables, which, IMO, is
much better than using frames.
You can nest tables, this will enable two tables to be placed next to each
other:
example:
<table>
<tr>
<td>
<table>
<tr>
<td>...</td>
</tr>
</table>
</td>
<td>
<table>
....
</table>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
set table borders, cellspacing and cellpadding to zero.
There are other methods, using CSS for example.
For the frames problem, set the page margins to zero.
