I like the borders of the forums like this. Can someone tell me how to draw a border in HTML/CSS as shown in the screenshot.
[IMG]http://img91.imageshack.us/img91/3292/fireshotcapture12helloimn7.th.jpg[/IMG]
I would like to have the bordercolor as well. The following HTML does not work perfectly on all browsers
I mean, with
FF - The code works fine
IE - Works but displays a thicker border compared to FF
Opera - Does not show the border color
Please help
Thanx

Use stylesheets instead of the deprecated border and bordercolor attributes of the table tag:
<html>
<head>
<title>My Title</title>
<style type="text/css">
.tablebord {border: 1px #6e94b7 solid; border-collapse: collapse;}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<table class="tablebord">
<tr><td>Hello 1</td><td>Hello 2</td><td>Hello 3</td></tr>
<tr><td>Hello 4</td><td>Hello 5</td><td>Hello 6</td></tr>
<tr><td>Hello 7</td><td>Hello 8</td><td>Hello 9</td></tr>
<tr><td>Hello 10</td><td>Hello 11</td><td>Hello 12</td></tr>
</table>
</body>

You forgot to give him the css to use with that. : )
I wouldn't use this, however, because it fails to put the borders between cells.
If you want to have a cross thatched border, set the background of the table element to the border color, and change the cellspacing to 1.
That should do it for you.

I forgot to put it in the td tags too. I was sleepy at the time.
