Hi everyone,
I'm really wondering something.I found that Internet Explorer doesn't
support using the css border settings on a tr element.
Anyone know of a good reason why? It doesn't make any sense to me. Also, I'm
curious if other browsers support it. Doesn't seem to be a bug as The
the tr element doesn't accept a border property according to
standards (according to
http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40/struct/tables.html#edef-TR). The fact
that IE allows it is an IE...feature :)
I normally add the borders to td's (which necessitate that
cellspacing be set to 0 on the table)
On
TRs don't have a lot of things, because they're structure, not really
displayed. If you want to deal with row groups, use TBODY instead;
they'll accept pretty much everything. Or you can use a tr td CSS
class, so you're assigning elements to the TDs inside the TRs:
tr.myClass td { border-top:
The fact that IE allows it is an IE...feature
unless it is a bypass for an oversight in the standards ;-)

REUSE CODE! Use custom tags;

standards (according to

use TBODY, like I said earlier, and just assign a border to the whole
thing. That's the entire reason THEAD, TBODY, and TFOOT exist. Well,
not for borders, but for managing groups of rows.

Thanks but TBODY doesn't allow a css border either.
I still only see one way of doing it.

Yes, but it's pretty sad I would have to do that. Although, that might be
better than my previous solution.
Thanks,

Am I missing something? Is there an easier way to accomplish that?
Yes, get a pen and draw the border on your monitor :OD

Boy do I feel sheepish. ;) I was sure I'd done exactly that before,
but you're right, it doesn't work at all. Here's a way that does
work, at least in CSS2 browsers (which IE 6 isn't, unfortunately):
html
head
style type=text/css
tr#bordered td {
border-top: 2px solid #f00;
html
head
style type=text/css
tr#bordered td {
border-top: 2px solid #f00;
border-bottom: 2px solid #f00;
}
tr#bordered td:first-child { border-left: 2px solid #f00; } tr#bordered
td:last-child { border-right: 2px solid #f00; } /style /head body table
tr id=bordered

Well, thanks, but I'm designing purely for IE. In this case, I ended up doing
this:
html
head
style
.FirstCell { border-left: 2px solid black; border-top: 2px solid black;
border-bottom: 2px solid black;}
.MiddleCell { border-top: 2px solid black; border-bottom: 2px solid black; }

Slight modification that gives you the same result with a bit less code.
html
head
style
tr.MiddleCell td{ border-top: 2px solid black; border-bottom: 2px solid black; }
td.FirstCell { border-left: 2px solid black;}
td.LastCell { border-right: 2px solid black;} /style /head body
table
By using a row class, you can avoid some duplication in the CSS, and
the need for a 'middleCell' class. Still the same hackishness, but
(at least to me) seems slightly cleaner.
html
head
style type=text/css
tr.bordered td {
border-top: 2px solid #f00;
border-bottom: 2px solid
Interesting, but in what situation what a TD exist where it's not inside a
TR ?

TRs don't have a lot of things, because they're structure
Never in well formed markup. It's just often easier to reference all
TDs by a common container, rather than individually.

Here is the javaScript solution I spoke of. It gives IE similar behavior to
CSS 2 compliant browsers.
html
head
style type=text/css
table
{
border-collapse: collapse;
}
tr#bordered td
{
border-top: 2px solid #f00;
border-bottom: 2px solid #f00;
}
tr#bordered
