So in > practical authoring for the WWW, how useful is it? Yukka, Just to nuance what you are saying here. IE browser market share has been steadily and consistently decreasing in the last 5 years. And right now, IE8 is the most popular IE browser version in use (in all countries and worldwide) with IE7 usage dropping and IE6 usage dropping too in all countries. If a lack of space between table borders is really something that will break a webpage layout or be detrimental to access to content, then yes, border-collapse: collapse should be preferred. But if the lack/ presenc of space between table borders is not detrimental and not breaking the page (or detrimental to access to content), then I say use border-spacing: 0. All that will be happening in IE7 is a 2px border spacing (the default border spacing in IE7) between table borders. No big deal as far as I'm concerned. regards, Gérard
