How set border thickness of table?

[VB Programmer]

How do you set the thickness of a <TABLE> border? I know that the MOST
OBVIOUS answer would be to do it through the properties window, but it's NOT
WORKING.

I tried this:
<TABLE id="Table2" style="HEIGHT: 553px" cellSpacing="0" cellPadding="5"
width="730" border="5" borderColor="#ff9900">

It doesn't matter if I set border to "1" or "100" - IT LOOKS THE SAME!

Any ideas?

Thanks

<TABLE id="Table2" style="HEIGHT: 553px" cellSpacing="0" cellPadding="5"
width="730" border="1" borderColor="#ff9900">

and
<TABLE id="Table2" style="HEIGHT: 553px" cellSpacing="0" cellPadding="5"
width="730" border="10" borderColor="#ff9900">

working fine no problem different border widths

It looks like the CSS was messing with it. But, I thought that INLINE HTML
takes precendence over CSS settings.... Hmmm....

Thanks!

CSS (from a stylesheet) is applied *after* the html is parsed, so it will
override anything you've specified inline.

not quite right. CSS from a stylesheet overrides attributes, but not inline
style. the logic is the attributes will be used no browser that do not
support CSS. try:

<TABLE id="Table2" style="HEIGHT: 553px;border 5 solid red;"
cellSpacing="0" cellPadding="5"
width="730" border="5" borderColor="#ff9900">

and you will get a 5pt red border.
