<table>

   <td>this is the first cell of the outer table</td>
    <td>this is the second cell of the outer table,
         with the inner table embedded in it
       <table>
         <tr>
         <td>this is the first cell of the inner table</td>
          <td>this is the second cell of the inner 
table</td>
         </tr>
      </table>
    </td>
 </tr>
</table>
