title: Can I replace <table border=1>' with `<table>` + css: `table{...}`?
body: <p><code>table{border:1px solid #000;}</code> doesn't seem to work without the <code>border=1</code> statement.
  In the same way as changing <code>&lt;input width=30&gt;</code> into <code>input{width:400px;}</code>, I would like to use <code>&lt;table&gt;</code> and declare the border in css only. Is that possible?</p>
  
  <p><strong>Update</strong>
  my mistake was using</p>
  
  <pre><code>table{border-width:1px;}
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>instead of e.g.</p>
  
  <pre><code>table{border:1px solid #000;} 
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>--which works fine.</p>
