Thanks to all who've contributed . gggggreatly appreaciated. I've not managed to resolve this though - even using CSS in the <head> section. I've pasted the code below. I should add that I tried the exact code suggested by midnz which didnt remove the table border - then pasted it into Dreamweaver (CS3) which added the <class> tags - still not luck though. I'm spending today trying to hack a standard vBulletin template in case that proves better - however, I'd like to know how to produce exact web-pages on the website as I'd need to do this in future.
Thanks (again)

For example, a medium to large corporation may require specific consultancy to include business analysis and functional specification documentation. This is beyond the scope of a forum discussion or FAQ?s on this site.<br />
