HTMLTableRowElement: bgColor property

Deprecated

Avoid using this feature in new projects. Some table styling attributes have no effect. They are superseded by CSS. This feature may be a candidate for removal from web standards or browsers.

The HTMLTableRowElement.bgColor property is used to set the background color of a row or retrieve the value of the obsolete bgColor attribute, if present.

Note: This property is deprecated and CSS should be used to set the background color. Use the background-color property instead.

Value

One of the following value types can be used:

  • a named color, like red or blue
  • a hex code, like #0000dd

Note: The values accepted here are a subset of the CSS color values. You can reuse HTML color values in CSS, but not in the other direction: the unknown colors would appear differently than expected.

Examples

Use CSS background-color instead. An example is available on the background-color page.
