Table Border: No Outside Borders

To set your table so that it has inside borders but no outside borders, add a FRAME attribute to the <TABLE ...> tag. (note that currently only MSIE recognizes the FRAME attribute.) set FRAME to VOID.

<TABLE border="1" bordercolor="#CBD3E1" bgcolor="#F1F4F5" RULES=ALL FRAME=VOID>

which gives us this table:

watermelon	grapes
peaches	bananas

Table Borders: Just Rows or Just Columns >>>
