Cool, now I know a couple ways around this HTML idiosyncrasy.  Thanks to
everyone who responded to my question.

Julia's version will work of course. However, I have a tendency not to nest
tables unless there is absolutely no other means of accomplishing an end.
What I would do (and this would be so much more elegant in DHTML of
course... ;)):

<!--- Since left is the default "flow" of the first table onto the page, you
really don't need to use alignment in the first
        table unless you simply wish to be explicit. --->
<TABLE ALIGN="left">
        <TR>
                <TD>Hello</TD>
        </TR>
</TABLE><BR CLEAR="all">

<!--- If you wish a little space between the tables. --->
<P>&nbsp;</>

<TABLE ALIGN="center">
        <TR>
                <TD>Hello</TD>
        </TR>
</TABLE>

As I said, not the most elegant of examples but if I understand what you
want correctly, this would be an alternative
solution. There are as many ways to accomplish this as there are developers,
btw...

Good luck!

Cheers,
