How can I get borders on my tables?

[sammefford]

Also, how can I get my table cells to align top vertically?

I would have the same questions. Alternative, how I can I specify or add my own stylesheet to do that?

I faced the same issue: Standard CSS file has issues with them. I solved it:

• copied stylesheet.8.css from markdown-doclet-1.4.jar

• added at the end of the file

  .block table,.block tr ,.block th ,.block td {
  border: 1px solid black;
  border-collapse: collapse;
  }

  I am not good at CSS, but it works :) }

• added tag <stylesheetfile with to updated css file to the plugin configuration:

  <plugin>
                  <artifactId>maven-javadoc-plugin</artifactId>
                  <version>2.9</version>
                  <configuration>
                      <doclet>ch.raffael.mddoclet.MarkdownDoclet</doclet>
                      <docletArtifact>
                          <groupId>ch.raffael.markdown-doclet</groupId>
                          <artifactId>markdown-doclet</artifactId>
                          <version>1.4</version>
                      </docletArtifact>
                      <stylesheetfile>updated_stylesheet.8.css</stylesheetfile>
                      <useStandardDocletOptions>true</useStandardDocletOptions>
                  </configuration>
              </plugin>
