<TABLE frame="void"> not working in FF or Chrome

Is <TABLE frame="void"> not supported in FF or Chrome?

I use it towards the bottom of my home page and it works great in IE; but in FF and Chrome, it shows the outer borders.

I don't know up from down when it comes to CSS, so is there a way to make my table display consistently across browsers with old-school table tags?

That is supported by Firefox just fine (have just tried it in FF 3.5, Safari 4.02, Opera 9.64). If it's not working for you in certain browsers, chances are you have something in your CSS declarations that overrides this setting and has explicit borders set up. Try it on a test html page with no external CSS declarations, then if it works for you (as it should), look through your CSS file to eliminate the borders, or define a new class just for the tables where you want to use the frame="void" option.

Can you post a link to a page where we can see this in action, and review the source code?

...it's the table towards the bottom of the page that profiles two companies side by side.

Change border="1" to border="0"

...but that will erase the inside borders (which i want to show)

That table is missing one thing that is required for this to work:

style="border-collapse: collapse"

With that and frame="void" the outside frame disappears, while the inside table cells still have borders. Keep border="1" to see it properly.

style="border-collapse: collapse"

That did the trick...thank you very much!!!

Just for future reference...

<TABLE frame="void"> is not valid for modern strict doctypes. The correct syntax would be <TABLE style="frame:void;">
