| empty-cells | NN 6 IE n/a CSS 2 |
| Inherited: Yes | |
Controls whether an empty td element shows its borders and background in a table. Surrounding cells don't change position when an empty cell is hidden. Instead, the cell is essentially transparent, allowing the table's background to show through in the space. |
