Something to remember is the <tr> = table rows, which go down the page. <td> = table columns, which go across.

Like this?
<table border="1" cellpadding="2" width="100%" bordercolor="#F08080" height="1" bordercolordark=" #B03060" bordercolorlight="#B03060">

<tr>
<td width="16%" bgcolor="#F08080" height="20"><span style="letter-spacing: 3pt"><font face="textile" size="2" color="#B03060"><b>.::INFO::.</b></font></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td width="16%" valign="top" height="130">
<font face="palatino" color="#EEB4B4" size="2">
<a href="aboutsite.html">About This Site</a>
<br><a href="hp.hml">**About Harry Potter</a>
<br><a href="aboutme.html">About Me</a>
<br><a href="aboutwh.html">**About Webhelpers</a>
<br><a href="contact.hml">Contact Us</a>
</font>
</td>
</tr>

<tr>
<td width="16%" bgcolor="#F08080" height="20"><span style="letter-spacing: 3pt"><font face="textile" size="2" color="#B03060"><b>.::INFO::.</b></font></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td width="16%" valign="top" height="130">
<font face="palatino" color="#EEB4B4" size="2">
<a href="aboutsite.html">About This Site</a>
<br><a href="hp.hml">**About Harry Potter</a>
<br><a href="aboutme.html">About Me</a>
<br><a href="aboutwh.html">**About Webhelpers</a>
<br><a href="contact.hml">Contact Us</a>
</font>
</td>
</tr>
