[tw] Re: Format cells in a table
Using CSS, you can define classes. Then for the cells that need a different look, you simply specify the class. html style td {background: yellow;} td.custom {background: pink;} /style table tbody tr tdcell1/td td class=customcell2/td tdcell3/td /tr /tbody /table /html In this case, the first and the third cell will be yellow and the second pink. Or you can directly specify the style for those cells. html table tbody tr style=background: yellow; tdcell1/td td style=background: pink;cell2/td tdcell3/td /tr /tbody /table /html In this example, the whole row will be yellow, except cell2, which will be pink. w On Feb 11, 9:38 pm, AndrewMc newsp...@post.com wrote: Thanks for the suggestion.

[tw] Re: Format cells in a table
Originally you had mentioned using ColorPalette colors in your table. Might want to look at: http://www.tiddlytools.com/#StyleSheetShortcuts At the End you will find (did not include all of the code. . .) /* [[ColorPalette]] text colors */ .Background { color:[[ColorPalette::Background]];} /* [[ColorPalette]] background colors */ .BGBackground { background-color:[[ColorPalette::Background]]; } Can copy the sections into your StyleSheet or import the StyleSheetShortcuts tiddler and transclude it via placing [[StyleSheetShortcuts]] at the top or bottom of your StyleSheet. (Effectively launching your StyleSheet + StyleSheetShortcuts at start up) Then could use the {{BGBackground{ My cool text here }}} Mike On Feb 12, 6:29 am, whatever kbrezov...@gmail.com wrote: Using CSS, you can define classes.

[tw] Re: Format cells in a table
Thanks Mike for the information about StyleSheetShortcuts. I already use this tiddler but did not have the latest version that included the ColorPalette colours. When using this approach in table cells, the text background is formatted correctly, but not the entire background of the cell. This can be seen in cell #2 below: |cell #1|{{BGPrimaryPale{cell #2}}}| |background-color:#8cf;cell #3|background-color: [[ColorPalette::PrimaryPale]]; cell #4| Cheers Andrew Mc On Feb 13, 10:10 am, Mike eris...@gmail.com wrote: Originally you had mentioned using ColorPalette colors in your table.
