stopping inheritance of borders for TDs

Currently, skinning (if you can call it that, I think I'm more taking out/stripping it. Anyway...) there is a class "forumline" with the following CSS:

.forumline {
  background-color: #ffffff;
  border-top:1px #006699 solid;
  border-left:1px #006699 solid;
  color:#000000;
}
.forumline td{
  border-bottom:1px #006699 solid;
  border-right:1px #006699 solid;
  padding:2px 5px 2px 5px;
}

As with most (if not all) forums, there are countless tables (which makes it a pain to edit) nested inside other tables nested inside other tables nest....

Well, how do I stop the nested tables from inheriting the borders? It makes everything look very weird and wrong.

.forumline td{
  border: 0;
  padding:2px 5px 2px 5px;
}

Either that or just remove it.

No, the problem is that the nested tables are getting the borders too. I want the original TDs to have borders but not the nested tables.

Same thing then!

.forumline td table td{
  border: 0;
}
