How do I add a gap between the two different tables? You can see here that they are stacked on top of each other, but I'd like there to be a space in the middle. In the left_column template there is a <br /> after the last </table> statement. Underneath that I copied the new <table> code. I tried adding a second <br /> between the two and it didn't change anything. What am I missing? As you can see in the screen shot, I'd like there to be a gap between the boxes like the gap between the categories. Here's a screen shot and the code.

<table align="left" border="0" cellpadding="$stylevar[cellpadding]" cellspacing="$stylevar[cellspacing]" class="tborder" width="95%">
<tr>
<td class="tcat"><span class="smallfont"><b>&raquo; Navigation</b></span></td>
</tr>
<!-- Begin custom code -->
<tr>
<td class="alt1"><a href="/library/index.shtml">Library</a></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class="alt1"><a href="/gallery/index.php">Media Gallery</a></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class="alt1"><a href="/auctions/index.php">Auctions</a></td></tr>
<tr>
<td class="alt1"><a href="/links.html">Links</a></td></tr>

</tr>
<!-- End custom code -->

</td>
</tr>
</table>
