CSS Navcell borders
I was wondering if their is a way to make a border just like a thin line. Like it's not bold (solid).

Copy and Paste this into a text editor:

<html>
<body>
<table width="98%" border="1" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="4" bordercolor="#000000" bordercolordark="#000000" bordercolorlight="#000000" bgcolor="#FFFFFF" style="border-collapse: collapse">
<tr>
<td class="sidebarheader">HEADER</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class="sidebarcontent">
CONTENT
</td>
</tr>
</table>
</body>
</html>

Save that as filename.htm, then open it. That's what border I want to get. But that's using HTML and tables.

I use Navcells.

Thank you for your time.

What are Navcells?

Code:
	border: 1px solid black;


Hope this helps,
Jeroen

I'm using 1px solid #000000; already. It looks like it's bold.

Navbox, Navcell[open][closed], etc are tables that go to a certain size depending on what screen resolution you have set. That way, if the programmer is using an 800by600 screen resolution and someone views the website in 1024by768, it won't look small. If the programmer uses 1024by768, and someone views the website in 800by600, it doesn't look really big. Understand? Hopefully I was accurate with my explanation.

A border looking like it's bold? Now I'm starting to get curious... Is it displayed as a *one* pixel black border?

It's definitely not one pixel.

Do you have any control over navbox/navcells? It sounds as if it's some sort of a code generator. Is that correct?
Could you show the generated code (pls. use the attach functionality) or better: do you have a URL where we could see this?

I have complete control over them. I always do my codes, scripts, etc manually.

It might be a problem with what borders I'm setting. Because you can use:

border-top
border-bottom
border-left
border-right

And I'm using all of them right now.

Please post some actual code that's giving you problems. Like Jerom, I've never heard of navcells--but, there's lots I haven't heard of

cheers,

Without seeing your HTML code using these classes, I suspect that adjacent cells are abutting their borders. Thus, two 1px borders become 1+1 px wide.

Check out the border-collapse attribute.

cheers,
