HTMLTableElement: bgColor property

View on MDN ↗

The bgcolor property of the HTMLTableElement represents the background color of the table.

[!NOTE] Do not use this attribute anymore. Instead, use the CSS background-color property by modifying the element’s style attribute or using a style rule.

Value

A string representing a color value.

When set to the null value, that null value is converted to the empty string (""), so elt.bgColor = null is equivalent to elt.bgColor = "".

Examples

// Set table background color to lightblue
const t = document.getElementById("TableA");
t.bgColor = "lightblue";
