I'm not sure exactly what you're asking, but you have some big problems with
overlapping tags in the code you posted.  I believe the answer to what
you're asking is to simply make the inner table a set width instead of
percentage, but as I said, I'm not exactly sure what you're asking.

For reference, however, here is the proper structure:
<table>
  <tr>
    <td>
      <table>
        <tr>
          <td>
          </td>
        </tr>
      </table>
    </td>
  </tr>
</table>
