i have a quick question...
i know html really good and all... im just not used to BASIC tables anymore haha... im going to leave out the tags so you all can see the code.... okay... heres my problem...
table border="3" bgcolor="ffffff" border="3" bordercolor="#000000" cellpadding="4" cellspacing="0" width="150" height="600"
okay that is my basic simple table code (i have the tr and td and all the closing tags right and all) but... my whole border wont stay black... the right side and the bottom will stay black but the top and left will turn grey... i tried to use bordercolorlight and bordercolordark and it didnt change anything... i knwo im doing somethign dumb wrong, but i cant think of what it is...

Possibly Carkitter could be of assistance here, since he was playing about with colours and fonts today... I'm afraid i'm not much use on this subject

Use CSS instead.
Stick this in between your head tags:
.table_border {
border: 2px solid #000000;
}
-->
And create your table as per the example below:
In other words, use the class="table_border" attribute instead of the border attribute.
To change the colour, type of line and width of the table border, all you have to do is adjust the values in the CSS definition:
.table_border {
border: 2px solid #000000;
}

Are you using Firefox to test your HTML?
I just tried your table HTML and it works as expected for me in Safari and IE on my Mac, but in Firefox it comes up as you say, top and left sides in grey.
So I can only assume its a bug in the way Firefox renders table borders...
You can get around it by using a nested table:
<table width="61" border="0" cellspacing="2" cellpadding="4" bgcolor="black">
<tr>
<td>
<table border="0" bgcolor="white" border="3" bordercolor="#000000" cellpadding="4" cellspacing="0" width="150" height="600">
<tr>
<td>kjdkjsd</td>
</tr>
</table>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
