Hey,
I fear you are approaching Android design as if you were coding for
HTML in the 90s. ;)
There is no real need for a table layout here. Heres an example of a
login dialog from the API Demos (samples/ApiDemos/res/layout/
alert_dialog_text_entry.xml):
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

</LinearLayout>
Hope this helps.
