Provide detailed reproduction steps (if any)

1. Go to http://sdk.ckeditor.com/samples/standardpreset.html

2. Edit <table> tag in "Source" view - edit to resemble the below:

   <table align="right" border="0" cellpadding="5" cellspacing="0" style="border: 0px solid #000000;">

3. Switch to WYSIWYG view; it has a border.

4. Switch back to code view: It is now:

   <table align="right" border="1" cellpadding="5" cellspacing="0">

Expected result

It shouldn't put any border, since no border is requested.

Actual result

It thinks a border was requested and sets border="1"

Comments

First time bug-poster, long-time user!

Behavior is the same in the nightly build standard editor.

This can be worked-around by breaking the border: tag apart into border-color, border-style, and border-width, which then doesn't change the border attribute.

AFAICS any value of border property (even 0px) results with setting a border to 1. Definitely an issue.

Also confirmed with edge so it's a cross browser, will add this information in original details. The for all of this is a simplified transformation in the table plugin.

Has this been fixed with 4.7.1?
