I have a table in in an rst file I am hosting on readthedocs that I would like to remove the borders from. Trouble is, nothing I try in the CSS file seems to work. I've looked at several other solutions SO and haven't yet had success.
Here is a (shortened) example of the table in rst (note i've split the columns in the last three rows to create a nesting effect, unsure if this could be causing any complications).
+------------------+-----------------------------+------------+-------------------------------------+
| Parameter | Description | Type | Notes |
+==================+=============================+============+=====================================+
| patrolID | ID of the submitted patrol. | int | Assigned automatically by the patrol|
| | | | app. |
+------------------+-----------------------------+------------+-------------------------------------+
| date | Date the patrol | string | Format is YYYY-MM-DD. |
| | occurred. | | |
+------------------+-----------------------------+------------+-------------------------------------+
| userID | The alias of the individual | string | Matches the user’s Vanguard email |
| | who submitted the patrol. | | alias (For example, MScott). |
+------------------+-----------------------------+------------+-------------------------------------+
| patrolStart | Time the patrol started. | int | Format is 24-hour (Ex: 0700 |
| | | | or 1400). |
+------------------+-----------------------------+------------+-------------------------------------+
| patrolEnd | Time the patrol ended. | int | Format is 24-hour (Ex: 0700 |
| | | | or 1400). |
+------------------+-----------------------------+------------+-------------------------------------+
|perimeterFence | Patrol area. | object | |
+----+-------------+-----------------------------+------------+-------------------------------------+
| |time | Time the area was patrolled.| int | Format is 24-hour (Ex: 0700 |
| | | | | or 1400). |
+----+-------------+-----------------------------+------------+-------------------------------------+
| |incident | Indicates whether anything | boolean | Default value is false. |
| | | unusual was encountered | | |
| | | during the patrol. | | |
+----+-------------+-----------------------------+------------+-------------------------------------+
| |details | Summary of area patrol. | string | When incident is false, the default |
| | | | | value will be "Nothing to report." |
+----+-------------+-----------------------------+------------+-------------------------------------+

Finally the CSS I currently have.
div.section table, td
{
white-space: normal !important;
}
div.section tbody, tr, td
{
border: none;
}
div.section thead, th
{
color: #FFFFFF;
background-color: #4472C4;
}
div.section tr.row-odd
{
background-color: #D9E2F3;
}
I've tried targeting table, tbody, .docutils, and other permutation and haven't been able to do anything to effect the border, though all the other CSS entries do what they're supposed to. Any ideas would be welcome.
