Drop the border colour, and give the table a background and turn up
your cellspacing and set border to 0.

<table cellpadding="5" cellspacing="2" border="0" background="#cc0000">

However, I would strongly suggest CSS for this job.

My question is; I'm using the follow to create a 2px wide red border with
padding for content



<table cellpadding="5" cellspacing="0" border="2" bordercolor="#cc0000">



in IE this renders perfectly fine, in Firefox it adds a 3D effect to the
table border. Is there anyway of switching this off?
