[liunx]

How do i create tables with thin single borders like on this page <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.hostquote.com">http://www.hostquote.com</a><!-- m --> When i try and do it i get 2 thin borders instead of 1 <br />
<br />
Here is my code for a my table - <br />
<TABLE BORDER=1 bordercolor="#000000"><br />
<TR> <br />
<TD ALIGN="center" bgcolor="#990000">My example</TD><br />
</TR><br />
<TR> <br />
<TD ALIGN="center" height="181">&nbsp;</TD><br />
</TR><br />
</TABLE><!--content-->This should point you in right direction:<br />
<br />
<TABLE STYLE="border:1px brown solid"> <br />
<TR> <br />
<TD ALIGN="center" bgcolor="#990000">My example</TD> <br />
</TR> <br />
<TR> <br />
<TD ALIGN="center" height="181"> </TD> <br />
</TR> <br />
</TABLE><br />
<br />
Bob<!--content-->Thanks Bob that excellent - 1 other questions is there a way of making the top cell which is brown run flush against the black border instead of leaving a space ....<!--content--><table style="border:1px brown solid" cellspacing="0"> <br />
<tr> <br />
<td align="center" bgcolor="#990000">My example</td> <br />
</tr> <br />
<tr> <br />
<td align="center" height="181"> </td> <br />
</tr> <br />
</table><!--content-->thankyou...<!--content-->You're welcome.<!--content--><div style="width: 80px; height: 200px; border: 1px solid #744a00;"><br />
<div style="background: #900;">My example</div><br />
</div>And, since brown is not a valid preset color, I specified an appropriate hex value.<!--content-->
