I am trying to figure out how to add border only inside the table. When I do:
table {
border: 0;
}
table td, table th {
border: 1px solid black;
}
The border is around the whole table and also between table cells. What I want to achieve is to have border only inside the table around table cells (without outer border around the table).
Here is markup I'm using for tables (even though I think that is not important):
<table>
<tr>
<th>Heading 1</th>
<th>Heading 2</th>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Cell (1,1)</td>
<td>Cell (1,2)</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Cell (2,1)</td>
<td>Cell (2,2)</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Cell (3,1)</td>
<td>Cell (3,2)</td>
</tr>
</table>
And here are some basic styles I apply to most of my tables:
table {
border-collapse: collapse;
border-spacing: 0;
}
If you are doing what I believe you are trying to do, you'll need something a little more like this:
table {
border-collapse: collapse;
}
table td, table th {
border: 1px solid black;
}
table tr:first-child th {
border-top: 0;
}
table tr:last-child td {
border-bottom: 0;
}
table tr td:first-child,
table tr th:first-child {
border-left: 0;
}
table tr td:last-child,
table tr th:last-child {
border-right: 0;
}
The problem is that you are setting a 'full border' around all the cells, which make it appear as if you have a border around the entire table.
Cheers.
EDIT: A little more info on those pseudo-classes can be found on quirksmode , and, as to be expected, you are pretty much SOL in terms of IE support.
this works for me:
table {
border-collapse: collapse;
border-style: hidden;
}
table td, table th {
border: 1px solid black;
}
tested in FF 3.6 and Chromium 5.0, IE lacks support; from W3C :
Borders with the 'border-style' of 'hidden' take precedence over all other conflicting borders. Any border with this value suppresses all borders at this location.
Example of a very simple way for you to achieve the desired effect:
<table border="1" frame="void" rules="all">
<tr>
<td>1111</td>
<td>2222</td>
<td>3333</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>4444</td>
<td>5555</td>
<td>6666</td>
</tr>
</table>
For ordinary table markup, here's a short solution that works on all devices/browsers on BrowserStack, except IE 7 and below:
table { border-collapse: collapse; }
td + td,
th + th { border-left: 1px solid; }
tr + tr { border-top: 1px solid; }
For IE 7 support, add this:
tr + tr > td,
tr + tr > th { border-top: 1px solid; }
A test case can be seen here: http://codepen.io/dalgard/pen/wmcdE
Due to mantain compatibility with ie7, ie8 I suggest using first-child and not last-child to doing this:
table tr td{border-top:1px solid #ffffff;border-left:1px solid #ffffff;}
table tr td:first-child{border-left:0;}
table tr:first-child td{border-top:0;}
You can learn about CSS 2.1 Pseudo-classes at: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc351024(VS.85).aspx
this should work:
table {
border:0;
}
table td, table th {
border: 1px solid black;
border-collapse: collapse;
}
edit:
i just tried it, no table border. but if i set a table border it is eliminated by the border-collapse.
this is the testfile:
<html>
<head>
<style type="text/css">
table {
border-collapse: collapse;
border-spacing: 0;
}
table {
border: 0;
}
table td, table th {
border: 1px solid black;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<table>
<tr>
<th>Heading 1</th>
<th>Heading 2</th>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Cell (1,1)</td>
<td>Cell (1,2)</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Cell (2,1)</td>
<td>Cell (2,2)</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Cell (3,1)</td>
<td>Cell (3,2)</td>
</tr>
</table>
</body>
</html>
that will do it all without css <TABLE BORDER=1 RULES=ALL FRAME=VOID>
code from: HTML CODE TUTORIAL
This should work:
HTML:
<table frame="void" rules="all">
CSS:
td, th {
border: 1px solid red;
}
Add the border to each cell with this:
table > tbody > tr > td { border: 1px solid rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.1); }
Remove the top border from all the cells in the first row:
table > tbody > tr:first-child > td { border-top: 0; }
Remove the left border from the cells in the first column:
table > tbody > tr > td:first-child { border-left: 0; }
Remove the right border from the cells in the last column:
table > tbody > tr > td:last-child { border-right: 0; }
Remove the bottom border from the cells in the last row:
table > tbody > tr:last-child > td { border-bottom: 0; }
Works for any combination of tbody/thead/tfoot and td/th
table.inner-border { border-collapse: collapse; border-spacing: 0; } table.inner-border > thead > tr > th, table.inner-border > thead > tr > td, table.inner-border > tbody > tr > th, table.inner-border > tbody > tr > td, table.inner-border > tfoot > tr > th, table.inner-border > tfoot > tr > td { border-bottom: 1px solid black; border-right: 1px solid black; } table.inner-border > thead > tr > :last-child, table.inner-border > tbody > tr > :last-child, table.inner-border > tfoot > tr > :last-child { border-right: 0; } table.inner-border > :last-child > tr:last-child > td, table.inner-border > :last-child > tr:last-child > th { border-bottom: 0; }
<table class="inner-border"> <thead> <tr> <th>head1,1</th> <td>head1,2</td> <td>head1,3</td> </tr> <tr> <td>head2,1</td> <td>head2,2</td> <th>head2,3</th> </tr> </thead> <tr> <td>1,1</td> <th>1,2</th> <td>1,3</td> </tr> <tr> <td>2,1</td> <td>2,2</td> <td>2,3</td> </tr> <tr> <td>3,1</td> <td>3,2</td> <td>3,3</td> </tr> <thead> <tr> <th>foot1,1</th> <td>foot1,2</td> <td>foot1,3</td> </tr> <tr> <td>foot2,1</td> <th>foot2,2</th> <th>foot2,3</th> </tr> </thead> </table>
