HTML Table BorderColor differs dramatically between browsers

Question

I have a bit of an annoying issue whereby my tables seem to be appearing completely differently between browsers, they are set as:

<table width="100%" border="1" cellpadding="4"  cellspacing="0" bordercolor="#eeeeee">

So the left one (Chrome) is correct at #eeeeee, but FF and IE just seem to be making it up as they go along!! There is nothing in my CSS that is event vaguely close to specifying a table border (I even tried un-linking my CSS files and the issue remained)

Any ideas?

<table width="100%" border="1" cellpadding="4" cellspacing="0" style="border: 2px solid #eeeeee;"> - now there IS indeed a light grey border, HOWEVER the cells are all still black outlined.. VERY odd! –

you should remove the border="1"
