html - How do I remove the double border on this table?

Question

I am working on the HTML and CSS and I get this result which is not perfect:

I've created a fiddle with it here: http://jsfiddle.net/niklasro/GParb/

But the borders of the table seem to not match the borders of the desired screen shot. How can I make the layout look more like the original mockup and remove the double borders on the table?

Here is the CSS and HTML code I have for the table:

CSS

table{ width:100%; text:align:center;border:1px solid #00F; font-size:12px;}
th{background:#EEE;width:auto; text-align:center; padding:5px 0;border:1px solid #00F;}
td{width:auto; text-align:center; padding:5px 0;border:1px solid #00F;}
tr:nth-child(even) {background: #EEE;}

HTML

<table>
    <thead>
    <tr>
        <th></th>
        <th></th>
        <th></th>
        <th></th>
        <th></th>
    </tr>
    </thead>

Answer 1

Add the border-collapse:collapse; to the table css selector. This will eliminate that nested border look. Also, your Text:align:center; should really be text-align:center;

Fiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/GParb/1/

CSS

table{
    width:100%;
    border-collapse:collapse;
    text-align:center;
    border:1px solid #00F;
    font-size:12px;
    }

Unlike the cellspacing="0" as suggested below, this answer will collapse the borders to not be a 3D effect, just like what the OP asked for.
