Hi Scott, You can specify colours for individual table cells in HTML/HTML Help output using the entry-bgcolor processing instruction. Just put this in the appropriate table <entry>:
<?dbhtml entry-bgcolor="[your chosen colour code]"?> I don't know is there anything similar for FO, though. cheers, Lisa -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: 12 February 2003 16:48 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: DOCBOOK-APPS: shading/coloring in tables? Folks, I have quite a few legacy HTML documents that are being converted to Simplified DocBook. Many of these contain complex tables, with multi-colored cells. The colors actually help quite a bit with readability, so it is important to preserve them if possible. Is there anything that supports shading or colors in SDocBook/CALS tables? Are colors/shades supported in both the HTML and FO stylesheets? Thanks, --Scott
