Not sure about the real HTMl syntax, or whether this is the best
solution (I'd imagine CSS would be better *if* it can be done with CSS)
but the following:

#+ATTR_HTML: width="100"
| col1 | col2 |
|------+------|
|    1 |    3 |
|      |      |

gets translated into an HTML table with an opening tag like this:

<table  border="2" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="6" rules="groups" frame="hsides" width="100">

Does that do the trick?
