The border-collapse property determines if a tables' borders should be separated or merged.
Below an example of two tables with different values to the border-collapse property:
The table on the left has border-collapse: separate while the one on the right has border-collapse: collapse.
| Value | Description |
|---|---|
| separate | This is the default value. It makes the borders of the table separate from each other. |
| collapse | This value sets the borders of the table to merge together, rather than being distinct. |
