Why table double border??

[Huitzilopochtli]

Hi there!

I have the words "Please type your message here" enclosed in a border, but the border seems to be made up of TWO borders, instead of one single line.

This is the code I am using:

<table width=&quot;80%&quot; border=&quot;1&quot; cellspacing=&quot;1&quot; cellpadding=&quot;1&quot; bordercolor=&quot;D38F50&quot;>
<tr>
<td>
<div align=&quot;center&quot;><font face=&quot;Verdana&quot; size=&quot;2&quot; color=&quot;EDCDA9&quot;>
<b>Please type your message here</b></font></div>
</td>
</tr>
</table>

Is there a way I can get the border so that it comprises only one line?

Thanks and cheers

Change bordercolor to bordercolorlight=&quot;#D38F50&quot;
and add bordercolordark=&quot;#ffffff&quot;

change #ffffff to match the background color of you page

Just had a quick look at what I sent you and it doesn't look too good a better option would be to set the borsser value in the table to &quot;0&quot; and change your div tag as follows

<div align=&quot;center&quot; style=&quot;border-style:solid;border-color:#D38F50;border-width:1px&quot;>

and if the only reason for the table was to produce the border then you can dispense with it altogether
