I came across a plain html template and would like to add a blog to the site. The layout of the template is basically one big table with navigation on the left and right with the main content in the center. Is there any way to embed wordpress inside the center of the table? I've tried to find some tutorials for doing this but the few that I found were just unanswered questions. I guess the main question would be how to break up the table in the theme, more so than if it can be done. I'm assuming once I figure out how to break up the table, putting wordpress into the right part of the table will be self-explanatory.
I'm new to wordpress and have never done anything with php before so I apologize if this should be a simple issue. Thank you very much.
