Hi All,

I've run into an "odd" stylesheet issue on IE6.  Not a CSS guru so not sure
if this is expected behavior.

I have an application that includes a site-wide style sheet with 

        <LINK rel="stylesheet" type="text/css"  href="../stylesheet.css">

In this stylesheet is the following snippet:

TABLE
{
    BORDER: royalblue 1px;
    COLOR: midnightblue;
    BACKGROUND-COLOR: royalblue;
    cellspacing: 0;
    cellpadding: 0
}
TR
{
    BACKGROUND-COLOR: white
}
.ERR
{
        background-color: Silver;
}
TH
{
    BORDER-RIGHT: white 1px;
    BORDER-TOP: white 1px;
    FONT: 10pt Verdana,Arial,Sans-Serif;
    BORDER-LEFT: white 1px;
    COLOR: white;
    BORDER-BOTTOM: white 1px;
    BACKGROUND-COLOR: royalblue;
    TEXT-DECORATION: underline
}
TD
{
    BORDER: royalblue 1px;
    FONT: 8pt Verdana,Arial,Sans-Serif;
    COLOR: black;

    BACKGROUND-COLOR: white
}


So the default for all <TD> and <TABLE> tags is a blue border.  


I wanted to override this setting on a particular page so I inserted the
following:

<STYLE>
TABLE{
  border: 0; !important
}

TR{
  border: 0 ; !important 
}

TD{
  border: 0 ; !important 
}

TH{
  border: 0; !important 
}

</STYLE>


Ive also tried (my preference):

<STYLE>
TABLE,TR,TD,TH {
  border: 0; !important
}
</STYLE>

And, also:

<table border="0" cellpadding="1" cellspacing="2" align="center" width="80%"
style="border: 0 !important">


But NONE of these seem to work, IE will not let me get rid of the default
blue border.  I have always used inline styles to override higher-level
settings, but it has always been on a custom "." class that I have written,
not a default HTML element like <TABLE>.  Is this by design or am I missing
something?  

The only other option I can think of is to create a custom .class and go
through the entire site applying it to the tables that exist.  Not to
excited about this option.

Any advice is appreciated!

Thanks!
