It does appear red on Firefox and IE 8. But perhaps you need to change the border-style too.

.field_set{
  border-color: #F00;
  border-style: solid;
}
<fieldset class="field_set">
  <legend>box</legend>
  <table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">
    <tr>
      <td>&nbsp;</td>
    </tr>
  </table>
</fieldset>

alt text
