Basically, I want to divide up the page into 3 parts the banner section and
below the banner, a nav bar on the left and a main section to the right. I was
told that you cant create tables beside each other.Also I want to create talbes within the main table on the right.

frames? or divs? tables won't do it afaik, but then i'm no guru

Erm okay - this is possibly how you do it (but don't take it as gospel - my HTML is a *bit* dodgy)

First create a table with 2 rows.
In the first row, you have you banner.
In the second row put a table with two colums.
In the left column put your nav bar.
In the right column put your main section. As long as you keep stuff with in the column tags, you can put whatever you want in here.

The HTML looks roughly like this (hopefully it will come out right):

<table border="2">
<tr>
<td>banner</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><table border="2">
<tr>
<td>sidebar</td>
<td>main section<table border="2">
<tr>
<td>a</td>
<td>table</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>in</td>
<td>main window</td>
</tr>
</table>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
</td>
</tr>
</table>

Is that right?

Easier again...

(Im using normal brackets instead of pointy ones here, cos the boards don't like pointy ones afaik)

(table width=100%)
(tr)
(td colspan=2)
your_banner_here
(/td)
(/tr)

(tr)
(td) your_navbar_here (/td)
(td) main_section_here (/td)
(/tr)
(/table)

Naturally you'll want to fiddle with the attributes, but that ought to give you the basic 3-cell layout.

Easiest of all!
Just copy the "index.htm" off my website and change the page names accordingly.
