 * Hi guys, I have been playing with wordpress for a few years now but don’t really
   have any coding background.
 * I would like to set up a table that primary has collapsed cells in terms of padding
   and spacing. So in my css I have <table class=”hometable1″ style=”text-align:
   center; border-collapse: collapse;” border=”0″ cellpadding=”0″>
 * What I would like to do however is have some spacing between some of the cells
   not all of them.
 * I have tried adding padding within each of the cells that I want it but it conflicting
   with the collapse command.
 * Is there a simple way to do this?
 * If I haven’t been clear, what I want to do is a have a table with 2 cells running
   horizontally beise each other. I want to have border around the two cells so 
   when published its looks like oe big cell.The collapsing will enable me to remove
   the dividing spaces.
    Beneath them I would like a space. Maybe two emply cells.
   This is what is causing the problem. Then I want to repeat the two cells again.
   ie another big box.
 * If someone can assist that would be great.
