child element is inherited from its parent, with the exception of
the color of row cells. These have a color which is inherited from
the column in which they appear so long as no color is specified
for the row. How the color is set, whether by attribute or by
processing instruction, does not matter.</p><p><a id="table-color-format"></a>The color can be expressed in hexadecimal
notation like for HTML (e.g. <code class="literal">#C0C0C0</code>) or in a syntax
understood by the <code class="filename">colortbl</code> latex package.</p><p>The default is the value of the table's
<code class="sgmltag-element">bgcolor</code> attribute, or white when not otherwise
specified.</p></div><div class="refsection" title="Context"><a id="idm669104"></a><h2>Context</h2><p>Recognized in the following elements<sup>[<a id="idm5446944" href="#ftn.idm5446944" class="footnote">1</a>]</sup>:</p><div class="itemizedlist"><ul class="itemizedlist" type="disc"><li class="listitem"><code class="sgmltag-element">col</code></li><li class="listitem"><code class="sgmltag-element">colgroup</code></li><li class="listitem"><code class="sgmltag-element">entry</code></li><li class="listitem"><code class="sgmltag-element">entrytbl</code></li><li class="listitem"><code class="sgmltag-element">row</code></li></ul></div></div><div class="refsection" title="See Also"><a id="idp13214656"></a><h2>See Also</h2><div class="itemizedlist"><ul class="itemizedlist" type="disc"><li class="listitem">See <a class="xref" href="sec-table.html#sec-table-color" title="Coloured tables">the section called “Coloured tables”</a></li></ul></div></div><div class="footnotes"><br /><hr width="100" align="left" /><div class="footnote"><p><sup>[<a id="ftn.idm5446944" href="#idm5446944" class="para">1</a>] </sup>HTML table elements have attributes which allow color to
