border

Border (Frame) around a Table (XHTML table model)

Use W3C documentation for the XHTML1.1 table model. (http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml-modularization/abstract_modules.html#s_tablemodule)

Remarks

Specifies the thickness, in pixels, of the border to draw around the table. A value of “ 0 ” indicates that the table has no border. Supplying the @border attribute without specifying a value indicates that the table has a border of the application’s default thickness.

Best Practice: Although the Tag Set can enforce only that this attribute contain any text, numbers, or special characters, best practice is to constrain this value to a counting number (positive integer).
