Tables Help

Hey guys, I've just recently begun writing web pages again, and I am
attempting to write them in Notepad to force myself to remember how
its done. When creating tables with background colors in the cells
how do you keep the lines b/w the cells from showing up? I'm not
talking about the border attribute, but the cells aren't butting up
against each other.
Thanks!

The attrubutes you want are:
cellspacing = length
cellpadding = length

Eg.
<table cellspacing="0px" cellpadding="0px">
</table>

And most of them, including msword, create code so messy that you
wouldn't want to touch it with a 10-foot pole.
