So since you want the inside tables to all be the same size, can't you just set the bgcolor for the containing TD?
<table> <tr> <td bgcolor="1"> <table> <tr> <td>Some data</td> </tr> </table> </td> <td bgcolor="2"> <table> <tr> <td>Some data</td> </tr> </table> </td> </tr> </table> By the way if this works, it will be fine for solid colors, but if you set a background image, in some versions of Netscape the image will be carried up to the contained table and repeated in each cell. So don't do that.
