My favorite part is that FF3 and FF2 don't even seem to be exactly the same. :) Safari respects both inner and outer border colors. FF respects outer border colors, draws a grey/darkgrey inner border Opera respects neither border color
Actually, my list of supports was wrong. I assumed "black" was default, and "red" was the applied color. No one gets this right. :)
The bordercolor attribute appears to be an Internet Explorer-specific HTML attribute, see <http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms533517(VS.85).aspx>. Hence, it is not part of any W3C standard. Instead, the preferred method for setting the border color is to use the CSS property border-color. For example, we can implement the reduction using CSS properties as follows: <table style="border: 1px solid red" border="1"> <tr> <td style="border: 1px solid blue">foo</td> <td>bar</td> </tr> </table> Notice, this will produce analogous results to the IE-specific attribute but uses the standardized CSS properties.
Created attachment 461609 [details] Safari 15.6 matches with other browsers I am not able to reproduce this bug as can be seen from attached screenshot, all browsers respect inner and outer table border color and show same. Although Firefox has strange colours but it does do same, so I am going to mark this as "RESOLVED CONFIGURATION CHANGED". Thanks!
