Sorry if this is a dumb question, but I cannot see how to do this:

I have a table with 3 columns. I want a line between the rows. I don't know
how to make it a solid line. A can get a line underneath each cell, but
there is a gap. This is what I'm trying to achieve.


-----------------------------------
A1 A2 A3
-----------------------------------
B1 B2 B3
-----------------------------------
C1 C2 C3
-----------------------------------

How do you make this line?

You can try this...it may work for you.

Highlight the cells
Right Click
Cell Properties
Style
Format
Border (select what you want)
Ok all the way out.

Right click in the table, select table properties. You can either adjust
the cell spacing to 0
or tick the collapse table border.

Since they didn't provide a link, my guess (according to his example) was
they had a space between the cell and table. Maybe I didn't get the
question?

How do you make this line?

It has nothing to do with gaps. The answer is to use CSS to assign bottom
borders to those cells.

Have you tried what I suggested? I cannot explain any simpler.
You can also use the cell borders tool on the toolbar to place border lines.

Maybe I just don't get the question. You using text in a cell, image? Wha?
Try posting your URL so everyone can try to figure out what exactly you are
trying to accomplish.

It's not my question. Your response to the question of how to get solid
lines between rows was to either use border collapse or to set cellspacing
for the table. My comment was that neither of those would draw a line
between cells.

The line you are looking for is called a border in HTML-ese. There are
multiple ways of determining what type (if any) of line to draw.

First of all, you can try going at it through FrontPage's UI. This is what
Wes was trying to tell you how to do.

First you want to get rid of borders on the table itself. Select the entire
table. Right click on it. Select Table Properties. Click on the Style
button. When Modify Style dialog shows, click on its Format button and then
select border. That gets you into how to specify what the outline on the
outside of the table looks like. In your case, I bet you only want the top
line of the table to show. By the time you get to this dialog, it will most
likely be self evident how to add and remove lines from the various sides of
your table.

Now, you need to specify how the cells themselves display. You want the
cells to have a solid line at the bottom of each cell. With the table still
completely selected, you can right click and select Cell Properties. Follow
the same sequence to get at the dialog that controls the cell borders.

The other method is to edit the HTML code itself. Look for your table in the
code. You'll see things like

..... border-left: 1.0pt ....

Where ever you see these, change the number to a 0 and then the associated
line becomes 0 points wide, effectively making it invisible.
