You can get a solid line of any color using two nested tables.
The outer one has a background color of the "border" color. The inner
table /rows/ specify the cell color. The cellspacing of the inner row
determines how wide the border is.
I tested this in IE & Netscape, Mac & PC though I remember using this as
base code once where there was a problem. Can't remember what it was
now.
Try this in a page:
+++++++++++++++++++++++
<html>
<body bgcolor="#ffffff">
<table cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0 border=0 bgcolor="#C2C297">
<tr><td>
<table cellpadding=4 cellspacing=1 border=0>
<tr bgcolor="#ffffff">
<td>This </td>
<td>works </td>
<td>in </td>
<td>both </td>
<td>browsers.</td>
</tr>
<tr bgcolor="#ffffff">
<td>Remember, </td>
<td>"outer </td>
<td>table, </td>
<td>inner </td>
<td>row." </td>
</tr></table>
</td></tr></table>
</body>
</html>
++++++++++++++++++++++
(I didn't come up with this myself. I found it somewhere.)
