lame question
Is there a way to put a border on one side of a table? I want the outside of some of my tables to be outlined but not all. Any ideas?

No..it's not possible. However, you can play around with borders using a 1x1 or 2x2 gif (depends on the size) and use it as a bg for you table. You should set the height and width according to your needs...

You can add colors to borders, especially with style sheets. Just that some browsers don't recognize colors and styles for tables (yet).

How about having a cell span the col or rows and filling it with a background color on the side you want to have a border on?
I have used this to make lines separating cells on my calendar pages in the popups at shoutingrock.org/troop214/Febxx.shtml

Hi,
Jim's got the right idea; If you have a td on left (eg) span a number of rows, you can fill it with a 1- or 2-pixel color space
It isn't a border, but would be hard to tell. Only other option is to use a gif (for verticals) & rules (for horizontal) -- which would make matching difficult.

Yes, Jim and Vincent are both right,
Also make sure that your table spec is:
<TABLE WIDTH="" HEIGHT="" CELLPADDING="0" CELLSPACING='0" BORDER="0">
Or it will look horrible in Netscape.
