i'm using this doctype
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.1//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml11/DTD/xhtml11.dtd">
<html lang="en" xml:lang="en" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
I would avoid styling
tr
elements because they don't really "exist" as such, apart from for semantic reasons. You're better off targeting the table cells themselves, with something like this:Also, since you are targeting directly nested elements, you can use the child selector, which is faster for browsers to parse (they only have to search one level up/down).
Give position as relative for tr class, which will fix.
tfoot tr {position:relative; border-bottom:solid 1px #ccc; }
