I require some HTML which will draw a rectangular box with some small
text in it (e.g. an email message which is being quoted apart from the
rest of the text). The box should have a thin black boundary, and a
light grey background to make the text distinctive from what it
outside the box.

I would guess that a <TABLE> would have to be used with one entry and
some form of table entry background colour selection would be
necessary. Can people offer wise words on the tags and design choices
for such an element? Or are there examples on the web which come to
mind, so I can steal their code? Thank you.
