borderwidth.

[Morgoth]

Hello,

<table border=1>
<tr>
<td>
1
</td>
</tr>
</table>


This is my table code (basically). What I wish to have is a border that is thinner then just 1.

I have seen it done, but I can't seem to find a site that has this, that I could look through the source for.

Do you know what I am looking for?
Can you help me?

(I want any method you can throw at me)

Thank you.

Well,
I answered my own question.


<table width="125" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="1" border="0" bgcolor='#000000'>
<tr>
<td>
<table border="0" bgcolor="#FFFFFF" width="100%">
<tr>
<td>
TEST WORDS
</td>
</tr>
</table>
</td>
</tr>
</table>


Thank you for anyone that looked at this and was about to reply.

or this:


<table bgcolor="#ffffff" width="125" style="border: 1px solid #000000;">
<tr>
<td>
TEST WORDS
</td>
</tr>
</table>

I have alwasy loved style tags!
It's perfect. Thank you so much for showing this to me, I'll use this instead.

i prefer to use an external style sheet instead of tag based or in <style> tags because you cn modify your whole site design by changing one file

[Morgoth]

I use a config file to include on any page to all pages..
It acts the same way..
But a differnt style page could be usefull!
Can you explain more about this? please? A tutorial maybe?

[whackaxe]

to have an external style file you must do 2 things

1) format your code just as you would in <style> tags (exept without the tags of course) and save the file as mysite.css

2) on the page where you want the style to be used insert this line

<link rel="stylesheet" href="mysite.css" type="text/css">

and your set

[Morgoth]

Oh neat.
But what about if i was using the style tags once, and in one part of all my code in one page.
I don't really see the point of having ot make another fiel for about 5-10 lines of code. Do you?

[whackaxe]

well not for 5-10 llines of code, but i always have huuuuuuuuge style sheets so i like to keep them in a seperate file

[brothercake]

You should always use style sheets, even for single instances. If something's only going to happen on one page then put it in <style> tags in the head of that page.

Inline CSS is unstable in netscape 4; especially things it doesn't support

[Morgoth]

I think for something as small as this, it doesnm't matter.
