SYMPTOMS
If a table is embedded in another table in an HTML document, the borders of the embedded table may not appear correctly in Windows Internet Explorer. This problem occurs if the following conditions are true:
 * The value of the table-layout attribute is set to &quot;fixed&quot;.
 * The value of the border-collapse attribute is set to &quot;collapse&quot;.
 * You do not set the width of the columns for the embedded table.

Note This problem may also occur even if you set the width of all columns correctly.
 * You configure the following properties of the table that contains the embedded table:
 * Style.Width
 * Style.Height
 * You use the Style element in the body of the HTML document.



WORKAROUND
To work around this problem, modify the document to avoid any of the conditions that are mentioned in the &quot;Symptoms&quot; section.
