Solution:

    (:table cellspacing=0:)

The space between cells exists because browsers default to
cellspacing=1 when rendering tables even if border=0. It would almost
be preferable to have PmWiki default assign cellspacing=0 and expect
the author to explicitly set cellspacing=1. This solution works with
border=1 to create a thin lined border.
