Oh, wait, I see what you are saying. You aren't talking about theme layout, you are talking about adding additional content using one of the editors.
You do not need to use CSS, but, you would want to make sure nothing in the CSS for your theme is overriding your intended result.
One way to do this would be to put tags like this in your code:
a bunch of table stuff here
Then in the CSS for your theme you could add styles for your customer class.
If you prefer, you can add CSS at the tag level (but, it is sloppy). It is called and inline style... it defeats one of the advantages of CSS, so it's not recommended... but, OK.
You would add a style attribute, like this
Either should work.

Hi Larrymac,
Before rushing off and buying an book on css (which will work !) try and remove the line-breaks form your content in the wysiwyg-editor.
Finding the line-breaks can be hard in the editor itself because the line-break might be at the end of a line anyway. In your favourite text-editor this should be easier.
This technique has worked well for me in removing the large gap before the table.
Because I don't use tables often I haven't investigated this any further. If and when I do I will post the results here.
Greetings Highlander

Highlander, you're a lazy man's savior! It makes for some sloppy code (since it's now one giant run-on line of HTML tags) but it worked great. Once I get everything up and running I'll be revisiting some of these pages to play with using CSS to do it correctly, but for the time being it works!
Sunsnapper: question on relative placement (I've never quite gotten my brain around this). That basically places it where it would normally and then moves it however far you specify, right? If so, isn't it vulnerable to varying display sizes?
Thanks again for all the help everybody.

Relative or absolute... up to you.
Relative is relative to the container an item is in.
Absolute is relative to the page.
I chose relative in the example because you were talking about adding a table within the existing layout. Absolute could cause your table not to flow within your layout (though if you put the correct offsets in, then it would look fine). So, I suggested relative in the example just to make it simpler for you.
This would all be based on the assumption that I am understanding relative and absolute... which I am unable to guarantee.

Have you tested with Edito 2.3, including the Koivi editor. It works perfectly well.
