Preserved Topic: dynamic vertical line

How would i make a vertical line (left and right of a table) dynamic? What i mean is: There is dynamic content (different on each page and every page is using the same layout (table). Now i don't want to make the tables a fixed height b/c of content BUT the vertical lines would be nice. CSS is (to my knowledge) out of the question as i would like to use the line in a cell because it should not be the full height of the table...

If you still know what I am talking about...can anyone help???

Update:
ok, I've uploaded the specific site: http://www.patricdesign.com/ozones/new.asp

Look at it and you'll see whats wrong! I want to get rid of the top left and right white horiz. lines!!!

CSS is not out of the question at all - in fact it may be your best option.

set up a class -

.borderleft {border-left: #fff 1px solid;}

.borderright {border-right: #fff 1px solid;}

Each <td> that is on the left edge, specify <td class="borderleft">

Each <td> on the right hand side specify as <td class="borderright">

If you don't get exactly what you want, just play aroudn with that basic concept until you do get what you want.

Thanx DL, I'm almost there! But how do i combine these styles for those td's that stretch over the whole width (the ones that should have a line both left and right) ???

<´¯`·.¸ Patric ¸.·´¯`>

.leftright {border-left: #fff 1px solid; border-right: #fff 1px solid;}

<td class="leftright">
