The border-spacing property determines the spacing between cells. This has no effect unless border-collapse is set to separate.
Below an example of two tables with different values to the border-spacing property:
The table on the left has border-spacing: 2px (default) while the one on the right has border-spacing: 8px.
| Value | Description |
|---|---|
| <length> | This is the default behavior, though the exact value can vary between browsers. |
| <length> <length> | This syntax allows specifying separate horizontal and vertical values respectively. |
