281933 - gircweb.org - FrontPage tables with borders that IE doesn't display

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Tech Evangelism Graveyard :: English US, defect)

Description

[John Strain]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.5) Gecko/20041107 Firefox/1.0
Build Identifier: Firefox/1.0

I checked other postings and did not see this issue. The attached MS Word
document has three screen prints: one from MS IE, one from MS Front Page and,
finally, from Firefox. Can one cause FF to not display those lines? 

Please advise. 

Thanks,

John Strain

It should behave just like IE and FP, i.e.: show no lines.

FrontPage 2K, eh? Quite the little footsoldier in the Browser Wars it was, too.

For some reason, it has specified a white border="1" on most of your <table>
elements, even though it knows that IE won't display that white border. If you
just take out that border="1", which you say you don't want, then you won't get it.
