Outside table border only - FF & IE confict

2 New Member
Hi

I am supernew at all this webstuff and am learning as I go. One of the major problems I have already encountered on numerous occasions is that IE and FF don't display the same way!
Latest problem is the outside table border.
Did not use Css as I have not worked my way up to those yet :-(
Used the following in the ouside table tag (not sure how to indicate width)
frame="border" bordercolor="#9 99999"
In FF this displays fine with a fine grey border line only on the outside table. IE however applies this border to all cell within that table as well! (excluding the nested tables?)

I am at a loss as to how to fix this, as most people visiting the site I am creating will probably be IE clients.

Help would be greatly appreciated!

This works with both IE and FF

its a table, with css in it indicated by 'style'
you can change the color, but if you want it to be just the outside border, keep it the way it is, and only modify the color


<table border="0" style=" border: 1px solid red;"><tr><td>TEST </td></tr></table>

let me know your results

Thanks,

Just now figured something out that worked with the css as well...

table.main {border:thin #999999 solid;}

with "main" as the class="main" in the actual table tag.

So I guess 2 solutions for 1 problem!

Hi, I am having trouble developing a form in a restricted environment. My sample code is found below my message (sorry I don't have a URL). Basically, without a doctype, the form displays properly with 3px padding around each form field, and no overlap. But the doctype changes the box model, I am told, and so the padding is added to the 100% width, leading to overlap and poor presentation. Unfortunately, I'm forced to use the doctype due to...

Dear all, I have been working to implement a scrolling table into an xml / xsl interface and so far have managed to put together an acceptable version using <thead> and <tbody> syntax. Indeed for the html examples that I found out there this seems to work perfectly. On the surface it also works perfectly in my xml / xsl implementation too (also based on html underneath). Indeed, using IE6*, you can take a look at a cut-down example by...

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
