The question is similar to this one: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1491717/how-to-display-a-content-in-two-column-layout-in-latex but about placing two tables side by side.

I have two small tables looking like that:

\begin{table}[t]
\begin{tabular}{|c|l||r|r||r|r|}
%content goes here
\end{tabular}
\caption{some caption} 
\end{table}

\begin{table}[t]
\begin{tabular}{|c|l||r|r||r|r|}
%content goes here
\end{tabular}
\caption{some caption for second table} 
\end{table}

I have one-column document and these tables are really narrow, so I would like to display them side by side (with separate captions) insted of one under another with a lot of unused, white space.

I tried to do it with this \multicols but it seems that floats (tables here) cannot be placed inside of it.

Any ideas?
