Hey all! Another Table Question (though still see the other). I want to make one side of the table have a border and the other NOT....

code:
<html>
<body>

<table border="0" width="100%" cellpadding="10">
<tr>

<td width="50%" valign="top">
This is some text. This is some text. This is some text. This is some text. This is some text.
</td>

<td width="50%" valign="top">
Another text. Another text. Another text. Another text. Another text. Another text. Another text.
</td>

</tr>
</table>

</body>
</html>



This gives both not. I tried making two tables but that didn't work either. Any suggestions? Should I use something other than HTML? I'm willing to try anything

Thanks in advance!

There are a few ways you could go about doing this. Are you wanting a border in between the two tables?

If you want to do it in CSS (this will NOT work in older browsers) you could do it this way:
add this in your CSS: #myTd{border-right: 2px solid #753d56;}
Then add this to the first <td> tag:
id="myTD"

There are ways to do it so that it works in browsers like NN4.7 and others, I can show you that if needed.

Actually, what I want is two columns, each w/ their own data.

Column one is like a regular column on the page, on the left side. Column 2, on the right, is in a box, bordered all around.

See what I mean? I thought I should use a table for this as it's how I've seen columns accomplished in the past. Is there a way for <table> to get me the desired results? If not, will anything?

Thanks!

Problem with that ^^^ is if your gonna get into big paragraphs andstuff instead of single lines then the numbers and linup gets all screwy..
