Hi,

Below is code for creating a table with only vertical borders. I now use a
table cell of 1px to create this effect. Is there a CSS alternative?

Bye,

Fizgig

No, it creates a table with horizontal borders.

<style type="text/css">
.myTableStyle { border-collapse: collapse; }
.myTableStyle td { border-top: 1px solid black; border-bottom: 1px solid
black; }
</style>
....

<table class="myTableStyle" width="100%" border="0" cellpadding="0"
cellspacing="0">
<tr>
...
</tr>
<tr>
...

<tr>
...
</tr>
</table>

So it seems, so presumably horizontal is what the OP wants. I have no
objection to the CSS solution, but I find it somewhat illogical to use
presentationa HTML markup...
[color=blue][color=green]
>> <table width="100%" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0">[/color][/color]

.... which does _not_ correspond to the desired effect at all. So I would
suggest replacing border="0" by
border="1" rules="rows" frame="void"

As do I. I neglected to continue whittling everything down. Sorry.
