Hi:
When I create a simple table the borders are incomplete when I display the page using IE6.

Here is the simple code, any suggestions?

Thanks!

Looks fine in IE6 to me. Are you sure that is the code that is giving you problems?

korkus,

Thanks for your reply. The code as posted does not work for me. I'm running Win98SE on a PC and maybe that compounds the issue. The code looks fine in NS4 and NS6.

Thanks.

I am running IE6 on a win2k proffessional box. What exactly is being cut off?

What do you mean by "incomplete"?

The grid lines are non-existant on the top and bottom of the table. The vertical table lines appear as dashes.

Thanks

Try setting the table border to 2 instead of 1, or defining a light color (like #cccccc) as a border color...

Hello solarmike,

Welcome to Webmaster World!
The code you posted renders fine here... Win98SE/IE6 - I'm not sure what is happening on your end.

And thank you both. I used a different network computer and the page renders fine using IE6 and WinXP. So I'm not sure what is going on in my box. I even changed screen resolutions. Perhaps I'll reload IE6 and see if that makes a difference. Thanks again.
