Help:Wiki University HTML-- Tables - Rows

ROW BACKGROUNDS If we are making changes to all the cells in a row, rather than putting code into each cell, we can put the coding in our row tags. Let's use our demonstration table again, this time without borders on the cells: Let's say we want to place a background color in the heading row, we simply add the background-color attribute to the beginning row tag like so:  

Our table will now look like this:

CHANGING FONT-FAMILY IN ROWS  
 * If you are going to change the font-family in all the cells in a row, install the code in the row tag. Here we will add it to the background attribute like so:

CHANGING FONT-SIZE IN ROWS  
 * To change the font-size in a row, install the code in the row tag. Here we will add it to the above changes like so:

CHANGING TEXT COLOR IN ROWS Let change text color to white with color attribute:  

CHANGING HEIGHT OF ROWS If you want the row to be taller, you can add the height attribute:
