Have you tried making the border colour (for just that one cell) to be white, 
or transparent, or whatever matches the background?

Regards,
Michael

Subject: [WSG] Table borders

Hello,

I'd be grateful for some help on this problem.

I need to display a table. No problem except that it is one of those tables 
that have header columns on the left and right, which means that the top 
left-hand cell should not appear (i.e. have no border). Like this (please see 
attachment if the picture does not appear below):

[cid:image001.jpg@01CC7F5F.EF854110]
Here is my coding:

<table class="Table_Text" width="92.2%" border="1" align="center" 
cellspacing="0">
<tr style="font-weight: bold; ">
<td style="border:none;"><br /></td>
<td style="text-align: center; ">Column 1 Title</td>
<td style="text-align: center; ">Column 2 Title</td></tr>
<tr>
<td style="font-weight: bold; ">Row 1 Title</td>
<td>Col 1 Row 1</td>
<td>Col 2 Row 1</td></tr>
<tr>
<td style="font-weight: bold; ">Row 2 Title</td>
<td>Col 1 Row 2</td>
<td>Col 2 Row 2</td></tr>
</table>

Unfortunately, all of the major browsers show the top-left cell with a border 
(a bit fainter, but you can still see it), despite my efforts (shown in code 
above) to render it invisible.

If someone could advise me how to make the cell truly invisible I would be most 
grateful.

Thank you and kind regards,

Grant Bailey
