We might have found, and might still find, a solution to your problem faster
if you started from the real problem description and posted the URL of the
page.
Do you mean that you are simulating a table with a DIV element containing
other DIV elements (which simulate table cells)? I wonder whether that's a
good idea. Anyway, then you simply have to set the border for each DIV
element separately and set _margin_ properties for them suitably. Beware
that vertical margins collapse so that 2 + 2 is not 4 but 2 whereas
horizontal margins do not collapse. So effectively you would set margin: 2px
1px for the inner DIV elements. This makes top and bottom margin 2px
(resulting in a net spacing of 2px due to the collapse) and left and right
margin 1px (resulting in a net spacing of 2px due to additive effect).
However, this depends on how you use the DIV elements - do you use floating,
or positioning, or what?
