How to link to a XHTML Table in a epub.

The problem is that I have large tables that go over multiple pages in my epub. On the iPad this just looks horrible and instead of chopping apart the table I deceided to make a seperate XHTML Table. I start out generating the layout for my epub in InDesign. I then export the InDesign file to epub. After this I change the epub file extension to .zip and extract the folders so that I am able to edit the HTML doc in Dreamweaver. I am trying to link a word in the epub to an XHTML Table that I created seperately and have placed in the OEBPS folder of the epub. However when I open the epub on my iPad the link will not open the XHTML Table. I am assuming it has something to do with the file path changing when I rename the folder back to epub. The problem is that Dreamweaver will not let me link to a .zip or .epub file. And when I try the link that I have created within Dreamweaver it opens the XHTML Table. Any suggestions?
