Settings for HTML table borders

For many beginners of HTML, table <table> is the most commonly used label, but for the control of the table border, many beginners are not very good solution.

Generally we use the table when always give it a border attribute, such as: <table border= "1", the effect is as follows:

Id	NAME	GENDER
1001	Mike	Male

Can find the table border seems to be very wide, of course, the "very wide" here is definitely not the width of the table border, we see the width should be between the gap between <td>. Therefore, only need to modify the table CellSpacing property, namely: <table border= "1px" cellspacing= "0px", the effect is as follows:

Id	NAME	GENDER
1001	Mike	Male

However, it seems that the width is still not as we imagined: only a single pixel width, in fact, you see is actually two pixels wide, for what, this is because the border between <td> is not caused by overlap. Modify the Border-collapse property of the table,

<table border= "1px" cellspacing= "0px" style= "Border-collapse:collapse" >

Id	NAME	GENDER
1001	Mike	Male

Add a color to the table, <table border= "1px" bordercolor= "#000000" cellspacing= "0px" style= "Border-collapse:collapse" >

Id	NAME	GENDER
1001	Mike	Male
