What am i doing wrong? HTML

Hey,

I am trying to fix up the border on my table.

It looks fine in dreamweaver:

But bad when viewing:

Code:

<table width="750" border="6" cellpadding="10" cellspacing="6" bordercolor="#8bf100" bgcolor="#FFFFFF" style="border-collapse: collapse">

What is wrong? Very much appreciated

Turn border style collapse off.

Hi Craig, how are you?

Seems like you know the problem, however, how do i turn it off?

I'm hungry..

Remove the following from your table tag.

Code:

style="border-collapse: collapse;"

I don't use dreamweaver so I don't know how it got added in the first place, theres probably a tick box somewhere in your table menu.

Hey man,

Fixed the problem, some how, weirdly, now the colour has changed:

go through your html code and make sure all the tables and table cells controlling that area do not have that border collapse property in them.

Thanks - will do, appreciate this Craig

Only code that could be doing anything is anything of the following:

Code:

<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1"></head>

<body bgcolor="#666699" text="#000000">
<center>
<table width="750" border="6" cellpadding="10" cellspacing="6" bordercolor="#8bf100" bgcolor="#FFFFFF">
<tr>
<td nowrap><p align="center" class="style1"><img src="hmm.jpg" width="770" height="211"></p>
<p align="center" class="style3">

Code:

</div></td>
</tr>
</table>

Spot anything mate?

No problem, you can give me a handjob in the morning.

Edit: As far as tables go, it isn't really off the mark. I'm not sure whats causing it without seeing the site itself. Dreamweaver can be a bit frisky when it comes to styling elements without consent.
