CSS - Table Th, Td, Tr Borders

Hey guys.

At the moment i have made a 100% colored table. What i am trying to do is add a 1px colored border to the top of the table and a 2px colored border to the bottom of the table. Ive tried several different approaches but i never get the result i am looking for.

Can anyone help me out with this? Here is my code:

Quote:
<table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" align="center">
<tr bgcolor="#000033">
<td align="left"><font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" size="6"><b><font color="#FFFFFF">

<a name="top">Tiffany and Co Neckless and Braclet Set</a></font></b></font></td>
</tr>

I have a page that is generated with php and contains several page breaks with multiple tables in between. The borders of the tables are generated with Quote:
TABLE {
BORDER-RIGHT: #000000 1px solid;
BORDER-TOP: #000000 1px solid;
BORDER-LEFT: #000000 1px solid;
BORDER-BOTTOM: #000000 1px solid;
}
and are needed in odd pages. The even pages tables don't need borders at all. How do I handle this?

I tried generating another css file with the BORDER values to be 0px but it didn't work.

Any ideas?

Okay, I have a table and I can center it using css, and I can turn on the outside border, but I cannot seem to turn on the row borders. How do I do this.

I tried.style="border:5px outset #a0a0a0; margin-left:auto;margin-right:auto; margin-top:15%;"

which works for the outside border and centering, but to turn on the inside cell row borders I had to use border="3" and then I am unable to center the table on the page no matter what I do. How do I center this table properly using css with both outside border and the row border turned on.

Hi,

I have a HTML page linking to a CSS file in the header. My main table is defined using class="formBody".

This includes:
Code:

table.formBody td {
    border-width: 1px 1px 1px 1px;
    padding: 5px 5px 5px 5px;
    border-style: solid solid solid solid;
    border-color: black black black black;
    background-color: white;
    -moz-border-radius: 0px 0px 0px 0px;
}

I need to override this on certain cells, so that a SINGLE certain cell will not have any borders (these will be cells on the bottom row, so the table will have the appearance of having half of its' actual width on the bottom row).

Any ideas? I tried explicitly setting border="0" in the <td> tag and also defining a new class called "noborder" with border set to none, and then using <td class="noborder"> but neither of these work.

essentially, what I want, is a table that looks like:

Code:

________________________
|       |     |        |
------------------------
              |________|

Any suggestions on how to do this?

Hi there, Everyone:

Firstly, I am a CSS noob...

My site is:

wwwDOTincenseforpeaceDOTcom

(change the word DOT to a . please, new users are not allowed to post URLs on this forum. Thanks)

I have a red background gif on my site. In firefox, it looks great. It DOESN'T show through the cell borders of the main table.

However, it is showing through the cell borders of a table in Internet Explorer (at least IE 8, haven't checked with earlier versions of IE).

Any idea on how to get it to stop showing through on IE?

This is what I THINK is the main table CSS (I told you I am a noob when it comes to CSS).

#content-container{
clear:both;
width:100%;
border-style:solid;
border-color:#666666;
border-spacing:0;
border-width:0 0; /* was border-width:1px 0; before */
padding:0 0 0 0;
margin:0;
/* ie6 min-height hack */
height:270px;
max-height:270px !important;

Thanks in advance.

I'd like to do something like this:

Quote:
<table border="1" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"
style="border-collapse: collapse" bordercolor="#666666" width="100%">
<tr>
<td>Test</td>
</tr>
</table>


But I don't want to use an inline style tag.

I tried this:

Quote:
<html>
<head>
<style>
.border {
border-color: #666666;
border-collapse: collapse;
border: 1px;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<table class="border" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%">
<tr>
<td>Test</td>
</tr>
</table>
</body>
</html>


But it does not work.

What am I doing wrong?

I have a table that is populated using Spry. For some of the users, the table is showing its' borders in white when there is no data in the cell and for other users (like me) it's showing its' borders in black like expected. This is occurring in IE8 for the user. I have IE8 as well.

Here is a setup of my table
Code:

<div id="Content">
        <p class='instructions'>Click a column header to sort the table.</p>
        <div spry:region="jdmba">
          <div spry:state="loading" class="loading">Please wait while alumni data loads&hellip;</div>
          <table class="spry" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">
            <tr>
              <th scope="col" width="108px" class="sortable" spry:sort="last" id="last">Last Name</th>
              <th scope="col" width="106px" class="sortable" spry:sort="first" id="first">First Name</th>
              <th scope="col" width="269px" class="sortable" spry:sort="account" id="account">Company</th>
              <th scope="col" width="66px" class="sortable" spry:sort="state" id="state">State</th>
              <th scope="col" width="82px" class="sortable" spry:sort="hls_year" id="hls_year">JD</th>
              <th scope="col" width="82px" class="sortable" spry:sort="hbs_year" id="hbs_year">MBA</th>
            </tr>
          </table>
          <div class="Overload">
            <table class="spry" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">
              <tr spry:repeat="jdmba" spry:setrow="jdmba" spry:odd="odd" spry:even="even" spry:hover="hover" >
                <td width="108px">{last}</td>
                <td width="106px">{first}</td>
                <td width="269px">{account}</td>
                <td width="66px">{state}</td>
                <td width="82px">{hls_year}</td>
                <td width="82px">{hbs_year}</td>
              </tr>

I'm only placing borders on the left and bottom so that in my detail cells the borders aren't doubled up. So for example when I have no data for the cell State, the left and bottom border of that cell is white rather than black.

Any ideas?

Thanks!

Can any one suggest a better CSS script for having a border in IE
So far I have the following:
PHP Code:
 border: 1px solid #0099CC; 




The problem is that when ran in IE, the top border does not show. However it works fine in firefox. Also I get warnings on my script when I run my CSS validation tool.

Can any one help.

Hi guys,

I am using the following css to style a content box:

Code:

/*---------------- Start of Testimonies Content Box ---------*/
#testimonies {
WIDTH: 175px;
MARGIN: -85px 0px 0px;
POSITION: right;
height: 60px;
float:right;

BORDER-RIGHT: #d9ddb9 1px solid; 
BORDER-LEFT: #d9ddb9 1px solid; 
BORDER-BOTTOM: #d9ddb9 1px solid; 
BORDER-TOP: #d9ddb9 1px solid; 

PADDING-TOP: 10px; 
PADDING-RIGHT: 10px; 
PADDING-BOTTOM: 20px; 
PADDING-LEFT: 10px; FLOAT: right; 

BACKGROUND-IMAGE: url(images/bg-down-right.gif);
BACKGROUND-POSITION: 50% bottom;  
BACKGROUND-REPEAT: repeat-x; 
BACKGROUND-COLOR: #fafceb;
}


.testimonies-h2 {
	PADDING-RIGHT: 3px; PADDING-LEFT: 0px; PADDING-BOTTOM: 0px; PADDING-TOP: 0px; BACKGROUND-COLOR: #fafceb
}


#testimonies H2 {
	PADDING-RIGHT: 0px; BACKGROUND-POSITION: 2px 3px; PADDING-LEFT: 0px; FONT-WEIGHT: bold; FONT-SIZE: 100%; BACKGROUND-IMAGE: url(images/bg-h2.gif); PADDING-BOTTOM: 2px; TEXT-TRANSFORM: uppercase; COLOR: #8fa300; PADDING-TOP: 2px; BACKGROUND-REPEAT: repeat-x
}


/*---------------- End of Testimonies Content Box ---------*/

I want to add an inline frame inside the 'testimonies' div in my html but it keeps using the border styling of the css above.

I tried using this to cancel it out (placing my inline frame in a span, but it did nothing)

Code:

#testimonials {
border-left:none;
border-right: none;
border-bottom:none;
border-top:none;
}

HTML CODE:

Code:

<div id="testimonies">
<h2><span class="testimonies-h2">Testimonials</span></h2>

<span class="testimonials">
<!-- ========== V-NewsTicker v2.2 (Freeware)  ============= -->
<script type="text/javascript" src="v_newsticker_1.js"></script>
<!-- ======================= -->
</span>

</div>

Is it possible to have more than one border in CSS? I want to have a grey and green border around an area of text, something like this.

So is it possible to have two or more borders in CSS and if so, how?

Hello,
I can't for the life of me figure out how to get these thin white borders like on this website:

http://www.viceland.com/index_us.php

Is this done with a style sheet? I can't find any reference to a border. How is this done?

Hi All,

I am trying to set a style in my CSS that will show a border-bottom for an entire row. So far I can only get it to work on a per cell (<td>) basis.

I am using Dreamweaver MX 2004 and when I select an entire row and assign it a style, it just add's it to the <tr> tags at the top of those rows.

Code:

<!-- This is a Row that is at the top of the table -->
<table width="100%"  border="0" class="fullwidth">
  <tr>
    <td class="head">This is a header </td>
  </tr>
</table>

<!-- This is where I want the border-bottom attribute to show up -->
<table width="100%"  border="0" cellpadding="2" cellspacing="1" class="list">
  <tr class="list">
    <td>&nbsp;</td>
    <td>&nbsp;</td>
    <td>&nbsp;</td>
    <td>&nbsp;</td>
    <td>&nbsp;</td>
  </tr>
  <tr class="list">
    <td>&nbsp;</td>
    <td>&nbsp;</td>
    <td>&nbsp;</td>
    <td>&nbsp;</td>
    <td>&nbsp;</td>
  </tr>
  <tr class="list">
    <td>&nbsp;</td>
    <td>&nbsp;</td>
    <td>&nbsp;</td>
    <td>&nbsp;</td>
    <td>&nbsp;</td>
  </tr>
  <tr class="list">
    <td>&nbsp;</td>
    <td>&nbsp;</td>
    <td>&nbsp;</td>
    <td>&nbsp;</td>
    <td>&nbsp;</td>
  </tr>
  <tr class="list">
    <td>&nbsp;</td>
    <td>&nbsp;</td>
    <td>&nbsp;</td>
    <td>&nbsp;</td>
    <td>&nbsp;</td>
  </tr>
</table>

Here is the CSS:
Code:

table.fullwidth
{width: 100%;
background-color: #FFFFFF;
border: 0px;
border-collapse: collapse;
border-spacing: 0px;}

tr.list
{background-color: #EFEFEF;
font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
font-size: 11px;
font-weight: normal;
color: #000000;
border-bottom: 1px dotted #000000;}

Basically on this page http://forum.prxa.info/profile.php?info=1&pageno=2

At the bottom the pagination boxes seem to have extra borders around them?

Should look more like http://forum.prxa.info/popular.php with seperate boxes!

how can i use:
