That example page you posted uses frames... the only real difference with that vs tables is that with frames, part of the page can scroll independently.

With tables:

Code:

Title Up Here
<.table>
   <.tr>
      <.td>
         <.a href="link.html">Nav Link<./a><br />
         <.a href="link.html">Nav Link<./a><br />
         <.a href="link.html">Nav Link<./a>
      <./td>
      <.td>
         And you put all the page content over here.
      <./td>
   <./tr>
<./table>

With frames:

You have one file that defines the frames:

Code:

<.frameset rows="150,*" framespacing="0" border="0" frameborder="0">
   <.frame name="title" scrolling="no" noresize src="title.html">
   <.frameset cols="150,*">
      <.frame name="navbar" target="main" src="navbar.html" scrolling="auto">
      <.frame name="main" src="main.html" target="main"  scrolling="auto">
   <./frameset>
<./frameset>

title.html:

Code:

Title Up Here

navbar.html:

Code:

<.a href="link.html">Nav Link<./a><.br />
<.a href="link.html">Nav Link<./a><.br />
<.a href="link.html">Nav Link<./a>

main.html:

Code:

And you put all the page content over here.

Of course, you would delete all the periods that I put in the code. (They're just there because the forum is not rendering html as text)
