Com'on dorayme, you know me better. I know style. I used red to make a
clear example of how the process works. Never intended one to use CSS
exactly as in the example!
It is just a blank row in a table has a different semantic meaning that
just a wider border. Depends on why OP needs the separation. If to make
a change in the relation of the data then semantically one should
separate the data with separate tables!
If the reason is for clarity with large multi-column multi-row table
then tinted row/column backgrounds on my border solution would be
applicable.
But if it is for some special spacing to hang part of a web page on,
then one should stop using a table for layout.
Of course if Frank here had suppled a URL, there'd be no mystery!

Take care,
