&lt;TABLE>&lt;tr>                                          table {
  &lt;td>&lt;TABLE style='margin: 20px; padding: 19px;'>     width: 600px;
       &lt;tr>&lt;td>&lt;/td>&lt;/tr>                              border: 1px solid red;
       &lt;/TABLE>&lt;/td>                                   empty-cells: show;}
&lt;/tr>&lt;/TABLE>                                        td {
                                                       border: 1px solid green;}

... and differ only in the value of 'padding:'. From top table to
bottom: 0px, 10px, 19px, 20px, 25px. Note that for a <u><i>table over-constrained 
within another table</i></u>, <i><u>when (padding >=margin)</u></i>, the margin is <i><u>all allocated 
to the right hand side</u></i> of the table (and to the left if 'direction: rtl;'.</pre>
