HTML Reference

HTML <table> rules Attribute

Display only the borders between the rows:

<table rules="rows">
<tr>
    <th>Month</th>
    <th>Savings</th>
</tr>
<tr>
    <td>January</td>
    <td>$100</td>
</tr>
</table>

The rules attribute is supported in all major browsers.

Note: The rules attribute is not supported in IE, prior version 9.

Note: Chrome and Safari displays this attribute incorrectly: They add the affected outside borders in addition to the inside borders.

The rules attribute specifies which parts of the inside borders that should be visible.

For practical reasons, it may be better to not specify any rules, and use CSS instead.

Value	Description
none	No lines
groups	Lines between row groups and column groups
rows	Lines between rows
cols	Lines between columns
all	Lines between rows and columns

The perfect solution for professionals who need to balance work, family, and career building.
