table problem

good day,
I would like to have my small .jpgs up along each side of my large (image1.jpg). I either have to put a table within a table(which IM having problems doing. Or i need another way. Could use some help. thanks


<table border=2 cellpadding=20 cellspacing=0 width="100%">
<tr><th colspan=4>welcome</th></tr>
<tr>
<td align=center valign=top width="25%"><img src="xxx.jpg"></td>
<td><image src="image1.jpg"></td>
<td align=center valign=top width="25%"><img src="xxx.jpg"></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td align=center valign=top width="25%"><img src="xxx.jpg"></td>
<td>&nbsp</td>
<td align=center valign=top width="25%"><img src="xxx.jpg"></td>
</tr>
<td align=center valign=top width="25%"><img src="xxx.jpg"></td>
<td>&nbsp</td>
<td align=center valign=top width="25%"><img src="xxx.jpg"></td>
<center>
</table>

Well, there are several ways you can go about achieving your desired result. The easiest adjustment for you is to add a "rowspan"...just like your colspan.

<table border=2 cellpadding=20 cellspacing=0 width="100%">
<tr><th colspan=3>welcome</th></tr>
<tr>
<td align=center valign=top width="25%"><img src="xxx.jpg"></td>
<td rowspan="3">
<p align="center"><image src="image1.jpg"></td>
<td align=center valign=top width="25%"><img src="xxx.jpg"></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td align=center valign=top width="25%"><img src="xxx.jpg"></td>
<td align=center valign=top width="25%"><img src="xxx.jpg"></td>
</tr>
<td align=center valign=top width="25%"><img src="xxx.jpg"></td>
<td align=center valign=top width="25%"><img src="xxx.jpg"></td>
<center>
</table>
