Description:How to change the background colour of a table cell. This simple bit of code accepts the table cell ID and a colour as the parameters for changing the background colour of the table cell.
Instructions:You can use this function to change the background colour of just about any element which supports the background-color style, including div layers, buttons, page body and many more.
Note the spelling of the word 'color' needs to be in american format when referencing the table style property.

In some cases you will not see the change if there is no taxt or html withing the table tag. In this case, if we did not add the text 'here is the table cell' then you will not see the table cell.
