Remarks

The length values specify the distance that separates adjoining cell borders. If one length is specified, it represents both the horizontal and vertical spacing. If two are specified, the first represents the horizontal spacing, the second the vertical spacing. Negative lengths are ignored.

The distance between the table border and the borders of the cells on the edge of the table is the IHTMLCSSStyleDeclaration::padding of the table for that side, plus the relevant IHTMLCSSStyleDeclaration::borderSpacing distance. For example, on the right side the distance is IHTMLCSSStyleDeclaration::paddingRight plus the horizontal IHTMLCSSStyleDeclaration::borderSpacing.
