OK, I've done a bit more digging on this. Apparently, you need to put a DIV inside your table, and then the DIV generates the scrollbars.

Something like this:

Code:

<table border="1">
  <tr>
    <td>Here is some text in the main table
      <table border="1">	  
        <tr>
          <td><div style="width: 200px; height: 200px; overflow: scroll;">
	    <p>This is the table-within-a-table</p>
            <p>Text</p>
            <p>Text</p>
	    <p>Text</p>
            <p>Text</p>
	    <p>Text</p>
            <p>Text</p>
	    <p>Text</p>
            <p>Text</p>
	    <p>Text</p>
            <p>Text</p>            
            </div>
	</td>
        </tr>
    </table>
	</td>
  </tr>
</table>
