The following is a display of FRAME, RULES and BORDERCOLOR(LIGHT/DARK) table border controls available to IE 3/4/5 complying with HTML 3.2 specs. Most of this just is ignored by Netscape, which just renders yer standard table.

All of the following tables are the same - save the header, which looks like this:

<TABLE BGCOLOR=color
    BORDER=number
    BORDERCOLORDARK=color
    BORDERCOLORLIGHT=color
    CELLPADDING=number
    CELLSPACING=number
    COLS=number -- speeds up drawing of table if you know total # of columns
    FRAME=(void/above/below/hsides/vsides/lhs/rhs/box/)
    RULES=(none/rows/cols/all)
    WIDTH=number >
