[Mediawiki-l] properly nesting tables

[Frederich, Eric P2173]

Does anyone know how to get rid of this?
I found that if I put the following in MediaWiki:Common.css I can get
rid of those borders if I set the nested table to use class="hrm".

table.hrm {
}

table.hrm th, table.hrm td {
  border: 0;
}

Is there a way I can override this in the template itself rather than
using a class?

I tried putting border: 0, and border="0" on this line...
| border="0" width="50" valign="top" | '''Note:'''

But that didn't get rid of it.
I would much rather fix this in the templates than use some class to get
rid of the borders but I don't know where to put it.

Thanks,
~Eric

So I finally got the wikitable css stuff working to make my tables look
pretty whenever I say class="wikitable".
Now my problem is if I wanted to have a non-wikitable inside of it.
 
I have a template called Box Note that looks like this....
 
{| width="75%" cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0 style="background-color:
#c1ffc1; border: 1px dashed green; padding: 0px 4px;"
|-
| width="50" valign="top" | '''Note:'''
| {{{1}}}
|}
 
...
 
It looks very nice and doesn't show any internal borders around each
cell.
But if I use it nested within a wikitable now all of a sudden I see the
borders in the note.
This happens if I use the template above for a note or if I were to
manually nest the table as shown below (so if anyone wanted to try this
out they wouldn't have to create and save a template).
 
So my question is how do I get rid of all of that style info and
properly nest two tables with different styles?
 
Thanks,
~Eric
