Question

I have tried setting it in the TablePlugin topic itself, I have tried in WebPreferences -- but I can't seem to get it to work.

Any ideas?

Answer

This is a plugin setting in the TablePlugin topic, i.e. write:

• Set HEADER_BG = #99CCCC

Just an idea - check there are no spaces after the colour value in the Set line. Also, put in some writeDebug calls around where it is picking up the value from the Plugin page, to see what it is getting.

Thanks, but no luck. Here's the info... I have tried red and #FFF without any luck.

Plugin settings are stored as preferences variables. To reference
a plugin setting write ==%<nop>&lt;plugin&gt;_&lt;setting&gt;%==, for example, ==%<nop>INTERWILDPLUGIN_SHORTDESCRIPTION%==

   * One line description, shown in the %WILDMANWEB%.TextFormattingRules topic:
      * Set SHORTDESCRIPTION = Control attributes of tables and sorting of table columns

   * Set DEBUG to 1 to get debug messages in =data/debug.txt=.  Default: =0=
      * Set DEBUG = 0

   * Table border width.  Default: 1
      * Set TABLEBORDER = 1

   * Table cell padding.  Default: 0
      * Set CELLPADDING = 0

   * Table cell spacing.  Default: 1
      * Set CELLSPACING = 1

   * Color for header cells ('*'s around text).  Default: <span style="background : #99CCCC;">#99CCCC</span>
      * Set HEADER_BG = red

   * Background color for table rows, two alternate colors.  Default: <span style="background : #FFFFCC;">#FFFFCC</span>,<span style="background : #FFFFFF;">#FFFFFF</span>
      * Set DATA_BG = #FFFFCC,#FFFFFF

   * Make sortable:
      * #Set SORT = attachments
      * Set SORT = all
      * #Set SORT = none
