i want a blue border around a layout table. However I don't want the cells inside it to have a border around them as well. can i remove this somehow?

Hi.
Your question has a simple answer. You have to nest tables. You do this by creating a table 1 row 1 column with the blue border, then inside it create a new table with the number of row & columns u like w/o borders.

Forget about nested tables - with CSS borders, margins and paddings you can do much-much more with less code.
You can apply them separately to cells, rows and table itself:

<table style="border: 1px solid blue">
<tr><td>Cell text</td></td>
</table>
