Adding a colored border around the outside of a table

[DaveLinger]

hello everyone,

I'm looking to add a 5 or 10 pixel white border around the outside of my table. Dunno the code to do that.

Thanks!

This should do it:
[code]table {
    border: 5px solid #FFFFFF;
}[/code]
This will affect all tables on your webpage. If you give your table a class name called say, tbl-border, you can do this instead:
[code]table.tbl-border {
    border: 5px solid #FFFFFF;
}[/code]
Also this wont affect the table cells, it'll only add a border around the parameter of the table.

thanks for the help, I went ahead and used it in-line, style="" style.
