It does work. I think David means that you should do this:

http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd";>


Untitled

/*  */




  

  

  
TD nested inside thinOrangeBorder table with no style.
  

  


  

  
TD nested inside thinOrangeBorder table with no style.
  

  

  



  

TD outside thinOrangeBorder table with no style.

That wont work I can't put border-style: none; That would get rid of the 
thing orange border I want to create!

Rowspans? I can't. There is one main index template and the rest are all 
injected. I guess I could go correct the 50 other templates :P

Or I can just do it the plain old ugly way, by wrapping tables around 
table without css...

a workaround shoud be to add inner table border canceling:
/* a th of a table inside a table */
table.thinOrangeBorder table th
{
   border-style: none;
}

/* a td of a table inside a table */
table.thinOrangeBorder table td
{
   border-style: none;
}

I don't think so, i think what david is saying is that having a table
inside a table can be avoided by using colspans and rowspans.

my $.02

So what you are saying is that I'm probably missing a closing tag 
somewhere on one of the tables?

That sux! it's a 3rd party product that uses smarty templates! I guess i 
have to figure out where the culprit is...

That says "A th element that is a descendent of a table of that
class".  When you nest tables, the descendents of the inner table
don't stop being descendents of the outer table.

That said, if you are nesting tables then it is almost a certainty
that your markup is incorrect anyway, so fixing that is probably the
way to go.
