You might well want cellspacing=0, but probably do want some cellpadding
(it's hard to read tables when the text runs into the borders).

Have you read through the HTML and CSS specifications for yourself yet?

All I had to do, just tested now on MSIE 6 on Windows 2000, was put:
  table {border-collapse: collapse;}
into the CSS for a table.  The following worked for me:

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN">
<html>
 <head>
  <title>test</title>
    <style type="text/css">table {border-collapse: collapse;}</style>
 </head>
 <body>
  <table border="1" rules="all">
   <tr><th>heading</th><th>heading</th></tr>
   <td><td>content</td><td>content</td></tr>
   <td><td>content</td><td>content</td></tr>
   <td><td>content</td><td>content</td></tr>
  </table>
 </body>
</html>

If you want to move all the styling into the CSS, and forget about the
few clients that don't do CSS, you could remove the border="1" and
rules="all" attributes, replacing them with:

 table, th, td {border: 1px solid black;}

Also tested on the same MSIE 6.  Both above examples are tested,
working, examples.

NB:  Of course, all bets are off with MSIE, it's behaviour from one
version to another is wildly different from another, and at variance
with the specifications.
