Splitting a page into tables is never a good idea for any purpose. If the site is a fixed width design, all you need is a graphic around 10px high and wide enough to cover the site width plus the side shadows, and then apply this as a vertically repeated, centred background to the page body.

I dont know if this will work, but it's worth a try. On your page make a two row table. In the top row place a background repeating graphic with the border / shadow. In the bottom place the bottom border with shadow hanging off of it.

In the top row place another table that will take the content for your webpage. So in essence you have a table in a table. but it is very simplistic.

Let me know if it works. Good luck

Tables are for presenting tabular data - if you do not have tabular data to display, DO NOT use any tables on the page.....
