    Unwanted border outside table

    Hi I have a website, using frames and am trying to recreate it using tables,as frames tend to squash when people resize their windows. Anyway ive made a table but there is a thick white border around the outside that I dont want, how do I get rid of it? (please ignore the dire colour scheme im just testing stuff out at the moment). Heres the code for the Table.

    <table width="780" height="585" border="0" cellspacing="2" cellpadding="2" bgcolor=yellow>

    <tr><td colspan=3 width="760" height="100" bgcolor=black></td></tr>

    <tr><td rowspan=2 width="100"></td>
    <td rowspan=2 width="390" bgcolor=red></td>

    <td width="210" Height="250" bgcolor=red valign=bottom>
    <div style="width:206px; height:200px; overflow: auto; background-color: #0000ff;layer-background-color: #00ff00; border: 1px none #ff0000; "><font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" size="3" color="#FFFF00">
    This is where all the stuff about dad goes.<br /></div>
    </td></tr>

    <tr><td width="210" Height="220" bgcolor=red align=center>

    <div style="width:200px; height:200px; overflow: auto; background-color: #0000ff;layer-background-color: #00ff00; border: 1px none #ff0000; "><font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" size="3" color="#FFFF00">
    This is where the links will go</div>
    </td></tr></table>

    Hi there DaggersFan,

    and welcome to these forums

    Whilst removing the body margin, which was
    the cause of the white space around your
    table, I took the liberty of placing all your
    table and div attributes into 'css' .
    Code:
    <html>
<head>
<title>layout</title>
<style type="text/css">
<!--
body
   {
    margin:0
   }
table
   {
    width:780px;
    height:585px;
    border:none;
    padding:2px;
    background:#ffff00;
   }
td#one
   {
    width:760px;
    height:100px;
    background:#000000;
   }
td#two
   {
    width:100px;
   }
td#three
   {
    width:390px;
    background:#ff0000;
   }
td#four
   {
    width:210px;
    height:250px;
    background:#ff0000;
    vertical-align:bottom;
    }
td#five
   {
    width:210px;
    height:220px;
    background:#ff0000;
    vertical-align:center;
   }
div#six
   {
    width:206px; 
    height:200px; 
    overflow: auto; 
    background: #0000ff; 
    border: none;
    font-family:arial, helvetica, sans-serif;
    font-size:14px;
    color:#ffff00;
   }
div#seven
   {
    width:200px; 
    height:200px; 
    overflow: auto; 
    background: #0000ff; border:none;
    font-family:arial, helvetica, sans-serif;
    font-size:14px;
    color:#ffff00;
   }
//-->
</style>
</head>
<body>
<div>
<table><tr>
<td id="one" colspan=3 ></td>
</tr><tr>
<td id="two" rowspan=2></td>
<td  id="three"rowspan=2></td>
<td id="four" ><div id="six">stuff about dad goes here</div></td>
</tr><tr>
<td id="five"><div id="seven">This is where the links will go</div></td>
</tr></table>
</div>
</body>
</html>

    Hi there DaggersFan,

    No problem, in the style sheet remove this line...

    padding:2px;

    from the table rules and replace it with this...

    border-collapse:collapse;


    cthead
