It all depends whether your table is styled with {border-
collapse:separate;} or {border-collapse:collapse;}
Example:
<http://dev.l-c-n.com/tables_4/table-border.php>
the <tr> has a 2px solid lime border.
Oh, and: it doesn't work correctly in IE Windows
Read a bit on the subject:

Tr {display:block} makes a complete mess out of a table in decent UA
and doesn't solve anything.
