tables

[ngreenwood6]

Hello all,

 

I know this is going to be an easy question, but for the life of me I cannot remember. I just want a simple little tiny line around the outside of my table and I cannot remember how to get it.

 

Thanks in advance

<table border="1"></table>

 

or take the css approach

 

<style type="text/css">
.tblborder{
    border:  thin solid;
    border-color:  #000;
}
</style>
<table class="tblborder"></table>

I know how to do it with the border but it puts a big bulky line around the outside. I want something thin like the black line around the code portion of your post.

are you trying to do this personally or trying to get your code to show in the forum?

 

show code on the forum:

 

[ code ] Code Here [ /code ]

 

Remove the spaces

I am trying to do it personally. I want to create a login box with a small line around the outside of it.

 

Thanks

use the css method.

 

<style type="text/css">
.tblborder{
    border:  thin solid;
    border-color:  #000;
}
</style>
<table class="tblborder"></table>

Thanks for the help. Is there any other method? Maybe something a little bit easier.

well i meand you can put the style tag right inside the table tags.

 

<table style="border:  thin solid;border-color:  #000;"></table>

 

Other than that, not, but the CSS method does give you more control over how the border looks.

I have a simplier solution!

 

<table style="border: 1px solid #000;">
  ... content of the table goes here...
</table>
