Table Background Color

This page demonstrates how to set the table background color within your web pages and other HTML documents. You can use the same colors presented here, or use any background color you like, as long as the color is specified in a way that is recognized by HTML.

In HTML, table background color is defined using Cascading Style Sheets (CSS). Specifically, you use the background-color property to define background color. You can apply this property against the whole table, a row, or a single cell.

Below are some examples of applying background color to a table in HTML.

Background Color for Whole Table

Background Color for Table Row

Here, we add a different background color to the first row, which happens to be the table header row. Therefore, we have one background color for the table, and a different background color for the table header row. Note that we also change the text color for the table header — this makes it easier to read.

Background Color for Table Cell

Using CSS Classes

It’s good practice to keep your CSS separate from the table when setting its styles. For example, you can define all your styles at the top of your HTML document or even in a separate CSS file. When you do this, you can create a «class» that holds all the styles for your table (or any other element). Then, to use these styles, you simply add class=»» where is the name of your class.

Here’s an example of using an embedded style sheet to define the background color of your HTML tables. Note that the styles are set in between the tags.

Here’s another example, but this one’s using a different set of styles, including a different background color for the table and the table header.

You’ll notice that we’ve also modified the bottom border of each table cell and changed the font family within each table cell (but not the table headers).

HTML Table Background Color

This page contains HTML table background color code. These are HTML codes for specifying or changing the background color of your tables within your blog or web page.

In HTML, table background color is specified using Cascading Style Sheets (CSS). In particular, you use the CSS background-color property to set the background color for your table. You can also specify a separate background color for your table rows and table cells if you like.

Background Color for the Whole Table

To change the background color of the whole table, use the background-color property against the table tag.

Background Color of a Table Row

To change the background color of a table row, you apply the same code, but to the table row in question (i.e. the tr tag).

Here we also use border-collapse:collapse; to collapse the border.

Background Color of a Single Cell

To change the background color of a single table cell, you apply the same code, but to the table cell in question (i.e. the td tag or the th tag, depending on whether the cell is a normal table data row or part of a table header).

Using Classes

The above examples use inline style sheets to set the CSS properties. This is only because it makes it easier for demonstration purposes. I strongly encourage you to use a CSS class defined in an external style sheet to set your styles. Even embedded style sheets are usually better than inline.

Here’s an example of setting the table’s background color and other properties using a CSS class.
