[html] How to set cellpadding and cellspacing in table with CSS?

Can someone tell me how to change table cellpadding and cellspacing like you can do it in html with:

<table cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"> 

But how is it done with css?

The padding inside a table-divider (TD) is a padding property applied to the cell itself.

CSS

td, th {padding:0}

The spacing in-between the table-dividers is a space between cell borders of the TABLE. To make it effective, you have to specify if your table cells borders will 'collapse' or be 'separated'.

CSS

table, td, th {border-collapse:separate}
table {border-spacing:6px}

Try this : https://www.google.ca/search?num=100&newwindow=1&q=css+table+cellspacing+cellpadding+site%3Astackoverflow.com ( 27 100 results )

Use padding on the cells and border-spacing on the table. The former will give you cellpadding while the latter will give you cellspacing.

table { border-spacing: 5px; } /* cellspacing */

th, td { padding: 5px; } /* cellpadding */

Here is the solution.

The HTML:

<table cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">
    <tr>
        <td>
            123
        </td>
    </tr>
</table>

The CSS:

table { 
      border-spacing:0; 
      border-collapse:collapse;   
    }

Hope this helps.

EDIT

td, th {padding:0}
