Ok , here's what I need , I am no good at tables , thats why you
see my websites use no bordered frames for layout , how do you
create tables to look like frames , different lengths , I never really
understood how to make tables in my code , please help me!

I want a table to cover the exact
width and height of this frame.

You should really be looking at learning to use CSS as an alternative to frames and tables.

All Tables start with <table> tag and end with </table>.
All Tables have a row using <tr> and </tr> tags.
All Tables have at least one cell using <td> and </td> tags.
A minimum Table is:
<table><tr><td>content</td></tr></table>
A Table width is set with width=% or pxl.
A Table border is set with border=#
Example:
<table width=90% border=1>
Cell width is set with colspan=% or pxl
Example:
<td colspan=15%>

Here is basicly what you asked for:
<table width=90% border=1>
<tr>
<td>hello
</td>
</tr>
</table>
<table width=90% border=1>
<tr>
<td colspan=15% valign=top>world<br><br>
</td>
<td colspan=85% valign=top>hello world
</td>
</tr>
</table>

Borders can be deleted, I just use for testing. valign=top in the <td> tag keeps content at the top of the cell.
This should help you figure out what you want.

GOOD LUCK!

Why CSS? Tables seem to be a lot more popular...
