alternative for bordercolorlight and bordercolordark

[djd4n]

Hi
i'm using the bordercolorlight and bordercolordark attributes to draw a box outline in a table by setting them to the same colour. you can see this on:
<SNIP>
It is on the menu buttons home, news etc. This obviously only works in IE and not in anything else. How can I get it to appear in Firefox etc the same as in IE, basically making it XHTML compatible?

thanks

dan.

Hi there djd4n,

and a warm welcome to these forums. ;)

for cross browser compatiblity use CSS, like this...

<style type="text/css">
<!--
#tableOne {
width:300px;
height:200px;
border-style:ridge;
border-width:8px;
border-top-color:#f99;
border-left-color:#f99;
border-right-color:#f00;
border-bottom-color:#f00;
}
#tableOne td {
border:1px solid #999;
}
//-->
</style>
<table id="tableOne"><tr>
<td>&#160;</td>
</tr></table>
