Hi, welcome to WebmasterWorld. I think we are talking apples and oranges here, that is no. A clever use of find and replace might do it.

Actually, I believe it can:

table {
  border: 0;
}

But that won't work if you have border="1" in your table tags or inline styles....

Mmm, you'll need it to be:

table, td {
border: 0;
}

if you want to get rid of the grid. This is because setting a border on a table in CSS only sets the outside border of a table element. Note that border: none also works.

Also, as far as I can tell this will override a border="1" declaration in html in most modern browsers.
