It's really not that hard. You just need to setup a two or three column table. Here is a two column table:

<table width="500" cellpacing="5" cellpadding="5" border="1">
<tr>
<td>Text goes here</td>
<td>Text goes here</td>
</tr>
</table>

Or just skip using tables. Below is a link to a site that I did the basic code for and then the site owner used it as a template. It should validate as XHTML 1.1 and it would be a whole lot easier to change over to what you want than weeding though code that has nested tables.
