There are three aspects of border color that can be applied. These are :
The dark and light properties are usable in IE5+. Netscape6+ may now render this too, but Netscape4.x does not.
Here is an example page to show the different borders in action. I have 5 tables. I've set the border to 5 for better viewing and understanding.

| bordercolor | sets the color of the border, overriding the 3D look of the default border. Bordercolor is a semi-common known property. Many people use it to create a colored border around the table area and it is supported by most updated browsers. |
| bordercolordark | sets the dark component of the 3D look borders. Places in the dark color on the right and bottom sides of the table border. |
| bodercolorlight | sets the light component of the 3D look borders. Places in the light color on the left and top sides of the table border. |
