title: Visualforce dataTable: is there a way to stop it from rendering cellpadding attribute?
body: <p>In Visualforce, I'm using an <code>&lt;apex:dataTable&gt;</code> component as follows:</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;apex:dataTable value="{!Qualifications}" var="qual" styleClass="cv_table" &gt;
      &lt;!-- etc...  --&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>... and then I'm using CSS to style the table, via the class name. Trouble is, VisualForce renders HTML like this:</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;table class="cv_table" id="j_id0:j_id26" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"&gt;
      &lt;!-- etc...  --&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>The class attribute is there as I wanted, but there's also cellpadding and cellspacing specified, that interfere with my CSS.</p>
  
  <p>Is there a way to stop Visualforce from rendering the cellpadding and cellspacing attributes for an <code>&lt;apex:dataTable&gt;</code>?</p>
