If you don’t explicitly assign values for cell padding and cell spacing, most browsers display the table as if cell padding were set to 1 and
cell spacing were set to 2. To ensure that browsers display the table with no padding or spacing, set Cell Padding and Cell Spacing to 0.

Width Specifies the width of the table in pixels, or as a percentage of the browser window’s width.
