Question

Borders show

I want a page border for the whole page but NOT for the individual columns and rows. The way I've done it looks fine on a PC using IE (which client uses) but using Firefox on a PC using anything on a Mac all the borders show. To clarify I want JUST the outside border to show.

I'm using Dreamweaver MX 2004. Here's the link to the beginning set-up: http://www.saraohara.com/jcb/pages/home.htm

THANKS!
Sara

Looking at your code, I see -

.style3 { color: #FFCC66;
font-family: "avante garde regular";

Please be aware that avante garde regular is not a websafe font. Further,
it's always a good practice to specify a font family rather than a single
font. These are your choices -

Next, you have this -

<table width="100" border="2" align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"
bordercolor="#bda448">

Be aware that the bordercolor attribute is invalid HTML (IE proprietary),
and should not be used. If you need to have a colored border on your table,
use CSS, like this -

table.special {
border:2px solid #bda448;
border-collapse:collapse;
width:760px;
margin:0 auto;
}

and then make your table tag like this -

<table width="760" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="special">
