Hi Lisa:
I don't know if this will help you out or not. I was also looking for the same solution myself, and decided to do a search on it.

1) Try this: [works in mozilla, ns6, ie6 ]

/* Equivalent for cellspacing=0 */
table{
border-collapse: collapse;
}

/* Equivalent for cellspacing=5px */
/* Works in IE5+ */
--------------------
table{
border-collapse: collapse;
border-width: 5px;
}

/* Works in NN */
--------------------
table{
border-collapse: collapse;
border-spacing: 5px;
}

2) Detail about border-collapse:

additionally... eric meyer says that because margins are not applied to table cells then you *can* use the css2 property border-spacing but support for this is pretty bad. he suggests leaving it in the html as a table attribute (i.e. <table cellspacing="0">)
