I'm trying to create a table with an outline similiar to the outlines shown on the front page of where the advertisements on the side are located. I can easily create an outline for a table with a size 1 thickness but it seems the outline at rawkus.com is actually thinner than the size one and it looks more professional. I'd appreciate information anyone has that can help me achieve this effect. thanks in advance.
 
It looks like they just have the table defined as
Code:
<table border=&quot;0&quot; cellspacing=&quot;0&quot; cellpadding=&quot;0&quot;>
...
...
</table>
Try that as it looks like what you're after. Obviously this may have a knock-on effect on cell contents.

Thanks for the quick reply Greg. If you could bare with me, I just have a few more questions about the same issue. I set all the table settings to 0 and obviously that left me with no border. The rawkus.com table still has that little white border that I'm trying to get. So by setting everything to 0, are you saying that I should create a background image with simulated borders in it or incorporate a border within each image that I want to put in the table? once again, thanks
 
Sorry, that's a typo!! ... the code should be
Code:
<table border=&quot;1&quot; cellspacing=&quot;0&quot; cellpadding=&quot;0&quot;>
...
...
</table>
