I have a table with a code like this:

<table cellpadding='6' rules='groups'  frame='no'> <thead> <tr><th>Date</th><th>Length</th><th>Time</th></tr> </thead>  <tbody> <tr><td>31. January1</td><td>28 km</td><td>3 hours</tr>  </tbody></table>

The problem is that in IE the table has frame and a tableborder = 1. What to do?

  1. Try this:

    <!DOCTYPE html> <html> <head>     <title>Example:Table with Header Underline Border</title>     <style type='text/css'>         table.groups         {             border-collapse: collapse;         }          table.groups thead th         {             border-bottom: solid 1px black;         }          table.groups th,         table.groups td         {             padding: 6px;         }     </style> </head> <body>     <table class='groups'>         <thead>             <tr><th>Date</th><th>Length</th><th>Time</th></tr>         </thead>         <tbody>             <tr><td>31. January1</td><td>28 km</td><td>3 hours</td></tr>         </tbody>     </table> </body> </html>

    A couple of specific things to note:

    • Using a DOCTYPE to prevent quirks mode.
      (this is the HTML5 DOCTYPE – some people prefer the more wordy XHTML or HTML4 Strict ones – those also work)
    • No unnecessary attributes on the tags – all controlled by tag names and classes.
