Hi,

How to set a color (css?) so that I can use it in my pages for a few <td bgcolor=...> (not all)

Thank you in advance.
 
Use a class. Put this in the HEAD section of your page:

Code:
<style type="text/css">
   .colouredCell {
      background-color: gold;
   }
</style>

and then use the "colouredCell" on your cells:

Code:
<td class="colouredCell">...</td>

Hope this helps,
Dan

It is better to have a file with your class info, in this case genstyle.css.

Then define a class colouredCell in your .css file.
Reason being is that if you want to make changes, then just modify you .css file, and not have to change all your that refer to colouredCell.

<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="genstyle.css">
