| Hi Everyone,
I consider myself a novice at DW and need to ask a novice question. Can anyone
tell me how to get the really neat boarder on the "table" like the ones that
are on the Adobe / Macromedia website. I assume that this is done with CSS but
I also wonder if it is being created using an image for the background. Can
anyone explain this to me?
I thought maybe it was done with a nested table but I don't think that is it.

On the main page, in the four-column area, the table outlines are created
using these images, which are used as backgrounds on various divs:

There was a method in the 'good old days', involving nested tables,
cell padding and background colors:
<table width="500" border="0" cellpadding="1" cellspacing="0" bgcolor="#00FF00">
<tr>
<td>
<table width="100%" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" bgcolor="#FFFFFF">
<tr>
<td> </td>
<td> </td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td> </td>
<td> </td>
</tr>
</table>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
But don't do it. It's ugly, it uses excessive code, and can be done
more simply with CSS:
table.greenborder {
width : 500px ;
background-color : white ;
border : 1px solid lime ;
}
....
<table class="greenborder">
<tr>
<td> </td>
<td> </td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td> </td>
<td> </td>
</tr>
</table>

Boarders on the table? Sounds like a pretty wild bed-and-breakfast....

| Joe,
I tried to recreate the boarders with the images. I am not sure if I am doing
this correctly or not. I don't know CSS well enough to try it there yet so I
did it in tables. I did notice that it didn't work in FF but does in IE. Any
suggestions.
