Overriding table border 1

[rjoubert]

I have an HTML table with a border set to 1. There is no content in the topmost, leftmost cell. Can I turn off the border just for that one cell?

Of course. one way is with an inline style like:

<td style="border:none">

There are a myriad of similar ways - assign a class to just that cell, etc. etc.

That works fine for the cell itself, but the outer border of the parent table is still on. In other words, the small box around the cell is gone, but the part of the outer table border above that cell is still there. I guess I could try turning the table border off and applying the border style to each and every cell.

I think I've got it working now. I had to leave the border set to 1 on the table tag, but added a style="border:none". Then I set the style="border:none" of the cells I wanted to be borderless.

Thanks traingamer for getting me pointed in the right direction.
