line grid

[Shank]

How can I fill a table cell with a blue line grid using CSS?
Imagine a blue line grid paper. That's the effect I want.
I'd like to do it without pics if possible.

thanks!

Background image.

Not possible. There is nothing to apply borders to, and backgrounds are
limited to solid colours and images.

Create a image with one grid square, then select it as background with
both a horizontal and vertical repeat.

You cannot use an image without using a pic, I presume.

Doesn't work with Firefox, and it's a pretty bad solution.

but the OQ was "how to" without
