Where is this table you are referring too? Is it the first occurence of <table when you search for it in the source code? Ifso, try changing Border="0" to border="1". 0 means No in computer language, and 1 means yes.

… width="30%" border="0" cellpadding="2" cellspacing="4" bordercolor="#003BDE" >

Make use of CSS, like

Code:

<table width="30%"  cellpadding="2" cellspacing="4"  class="list" >

Code:

table.list, table.list td {
border:1px solid #003BDE;
border-collapse:collapse;
}

..and of course remove border="0"
