How do you change the background colour in tables?

Hi Luke,

Hope you enjoyed today's Dreamweaver course.

The simplest way to change a table's background colour is to select the table, look at the properties panel where you'll see Bg color and a colour box. Select the colour here. You may notice that what happens in the code is a new parameter is added to the <table> tag, which is BGCOLOR.

You can also change the colour using CSS, which is covered on our Dreamweaver Intermediate course.

I hope this answers your question.

Regards, Rich
