hi moe

your outer table can stay 100%, but nested 100% tables in a colspan or
rowspan is asking for trouble (and sometimes the browser assumes a nested
100% table *should* be as wide as the window, hence the horizontal scroll)

before coding pixel width for the nested tables, try just removing all
widths on nested tables

and don't worry about nesting two or three or six levels of tables in order
to get rid of the colspans and rowspans, either

as long as your images have dimensions, nested tables don't really slow
down rendering very much, especially if you don't use rowspans and colspans

by the way, you are using <td id="xx"> repeatedly, you should change this
to classes instead and define them that way in the style sheet
