how to remove all inherited CSS formatting for a table?

Question

I have a table which has a certain style due to the css file for the page (it has blue borders, etc...).

Is there a simple way to remove the css for that specific table? I was thinking something along the lines of a command like style="nostyle"

Does anything like this exist?

Answer 1

Use a CSS reset like the YUI CSS reset.

Answer 2

Try this.

From Eric Meyer's Reset CSS

table, caption, tbody, tfoot, thead, tr, th, td {
    margin: 0;
    padding: 0;
    border: 0;
    outline: 0;
    font-size: 100%;
    vertical-align: baseline;
    background: transparent;
}
