Pretty good in modern browsers, shame about Internet Explorer. :-(

If an equivalent to cellspacing="0" is wanted then border-collapse:
collapse; has the same effect even in IE. But for non-zero values it's
best to stick with the HTML attribute until IE catches up with the six
year old CSS2 spec.

(ahem) That's IE/Win. IE/Mac does not recognize border-collapse, thus
you must retain cesspacing="0" for that browser.

cellspacing
"The attribute also specifies the amount of space to leave between cells."
http://www.w3.org/TR/html401/struct/...ef-cellspacing

I'm surprised that no one answered you
border-spacing
"The 'border-spacing' property specifies the distance between the
borders of adjacent cells."

I did. 45 hours and 27 minutes ago. But I referred to the
CSS 2.1 specs, where the name of the paragraph is 'seperated
borders'.
