how can a particular cell or row of a table be formatted to be a specific background-color?

Tried @@background-color:#CCC

to the cell contents, but it only applies the color to the content background not the entire cell.

Documentation says a css-class can be used.

Should the css class be defined as a separate tiddler with content type text/css and be transcluded in the table tiddler using the <<classname>> ?

Hi John,

Tobias found a way to format the cells of a table http://tobibeer.github.io/tb5/#Formatting%20Table%20Cells

Thanks.

So apply a div tag to the content and apply the css-class and compensate to fill the cell.

I also found a previous post that suggested using

.mytablecss tr:nth-child(1){

background-color: #FBEFF8;

}

</style></html>

inside a tiddler without defining an external style sheet like "$:/styles/mytablecss"
