Try adding frame="void" to the table attributes. Is that what you were after?

It works for me. I only see the the <td> borders. P.s. could you please provide a code playground link next time? It helps people to help you better

Not a problem. Glad to help. A few FYIs: <tr> tags don't have a border attribute, so these don't have any effect in your code. You have omitted your closing </table> tag. This isn't a problem at the moment, but if you attempt to expand on your code, it could cause some unexpected behaviour and some head-scratching. cellspacing and cellpadding attributes aren't supported in HTML5.

Actually your html tag "<!DOCTYPE html> declares HTML5. Maybe some browers will not work properly when you have HTML5 declared but use non-HTML5 code.
