    Borders

    Would it be better to use the cell border attribute to create a thin border or use a table within a black cell with cellpadding to 1? Thanks.

    I always use this for border:
    Code:
    style="border:1px solid black"
    makes a nice thin black border....yummy

    The second one? The CSS one is interesting, will look into that.

    The table within a table is the only way that Netscape users will be able to see what you want. (PIA though to create)
    Expecially if you want colors. Yeah, most folks use IE. Is your site for "most" or for "all"?

    The CSS method will work in Netscape just as well. You were probably referring to versions 4.x and earlier, in which case what you're right, but that isn't what you said and you're casting the wrong impression.

    Ah, I found my old avatar. The hypnotic evil duck.
    It was 2002. Duck avatars were the style at the time.
    Long and fascinating story there. I'd tell you if I remembered it.

    I prefer cell spacing. I'm not keen on borders.

    My apologies for the inaccuracy and for the attitude.
