First or second, you should look at validating.

Probably first though, you should be rid of all this sort of
thing:

<td>
<p><span style="font-family:Verdana; font-size:10; color:white">
0</span></p></td>

Why the <p>, why the <span>, why the inline styles cluttering
all? Plus you cannot have font-size in styles without units (em,
%)

Get yourself a css sheet separate and link it to the html page.
