Attribute for <TR ...>
BGCOLOR = color expression
BGCOLOR sets the background color for a table row. BGCOLOR should only be used if you already know that the background color is compatible with the font color of the page. Otherwise it's easier and more reliable to use styles. See
Table Backgrounds: Rows.
For example, this code sets the background color of the first row to a light brown:
| this code |
produces this |
<TABLE CELLPADDING=8>
<TR BGCOLOR="#CCCC99">
<TD>lemons</TD>
<TD>grapefruit</TD>
</TR>
<TR>
<TD>bananas</TD>
<TD>pineapple</TD>
</TR>
</TABLE>
|
| lemons |
grapefruit |
| bananas |
pineapple |
|
MSIE and Netscape render row background colors differently if
CELLSPACING is set to zero. MSIE fills the entire row with the color, but Netscape leaves spaces between the cells. Unfortunately there's no good workaround for the Netscape problem. Usually the best thing to do is to hide the problem by adding borders to the table:
| this code |
produces this |
<TABLE CELLPADDING=8 BORDER=2>
<TR BGCOLOR="#CCCC99">
<TD>lemons</TD>
<TD>grapefruit</TD>
</TR>
<TR>
<TD>bananas</TD>
<TD>pineapple</TD>
</TR>
</TABLE>
|
| lemons |
grapefruit |
| bananas |
pineapple |
