Table defaults?

[dougie]

When you make a table in some progs, you automatically get this:
<table border="0" cellspacing="0" style="border-collapse: collapse"
bordercolor="#111111" cellpadding="0">

Am I right in saying that if I just put <table> I would get exactly the same thing?

In a word, no.

Lance is correct. But the example you give is overkill. The border attribute is set to zero already, so there is no need for border-collapse and border-color.

<table border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">

...should suffice.

Cheers for that, one thing, if the border attribute is zero already, why would you need to put it in the tag?

What I meant was, by having the "border=0" in there eliminates the need for the other two. Why don't you just test it different ways to see what happens?

No sweat, we quote people's posts all the time here.

** Yeah, I've seen loads here before, but the difference is that I didn't mean to ;-)
