Hi, I don;t know where else to post this, so I'll try the off topic forum first.

I created a simple table here:
http://errsolutions.com/temp/tabletest.html

the table works well in Internet Explorer, however when you switch to netscape, the inside borders are all messed up.

I've seen some sites with perfect inside border with netscape. Looked at their code but couldn't figure out why.

any comments appreciated

the only thing i can guess is that netscape is not recognizing the "bordercolor=BLAH" code...

oh, what version of netscape have you been using? i'm using 4.74 to view the page.

the table where you use "Heading 1 _ Heading 2 _ Heading 3 _ Heading 4" looks fine, because the "bordercolor=BLAH" is not there...

I am using Netscape version 4.76

I have seen some sites with tables that works well WITH border and Netscape.

I don;t know about the bordercolor, but I think it has to be there because otherwise my border won't be colored.

Thx again

For empty table cells, add  .

Another suggestion is to try it without CSS. Even if you don't set any property to that element, Netscape loves to do something funny with CSS enabled.

I've used &nbsp on empty table .. but not on this test html page.

So, how can you make it work with css ?
