Actually, I consider table design to be the saving grace of forms. From a layout perspective it is just about the only way to have a form look decent.
I'm not sure if I've done multiple forms spread across table barriers, but I don't see why it wouldn't work. The only rule that I know of would be that all the form elements have to be together inside the form tags ... in other words forms can't share fields, although that too could probably be gotten around with a little creative JavaScript.
Here is my favorite example to date. I've stripped the proprietary stuff and the CSS specs out of it, but it includes multiple tables inside Fieldsets inside one huge form (and it looks snazzy to boot!)
Cheers!
