 * Hi,
 * By default, in my current theme, the table border width is 0, which makes the
   border invisible.
 * To show the table borders, I add the following line to custom CSS:
 * .entry table { border: 1; }
 * But this does not work. Why?

 * You could use the following CSS rule:
 * border: 1px solid black;
