You might find it easier to use styles to set colors, especially if you also want to set the color of fonts. For example, suppose we want to set the background color of the first column to red and the font color to white. First we would put a set of styles rule like this in the <HEAD> section fo the page:
<STYLE TYPE="text/css">
<!--
.redcol
{
background-color:red;
color:white;
}
-->
</STYLE>
Thse styles create a class named redcol. We can apply the
redcol class to a column using the CLASS attribute like this:
<TABLE BORDER CELLPADDING=5>
<COL CLASS="redcol">
<TR> <TH>Name</TH> <TH>Price</TH> <TH>Status</TH> </TR>
more table rows
</TABLE>
which gives us this table
| Name | Price | Status |
