Table background

àtúnṣe

Notes:

  1. This table background template requires a parameter.
  2. Different from element cell backgrounds, they are not intended to be in a legend.

Usage:

  • {{Element color/Table|header}} → #e0e0e0
The parameter spec is also the first unnamed parameter:
  • {{Element color/Table|header}} → #e0e0e0


Àdàkọ:Element color/Table/Overview

The default value (returned when the first parameter is not recognised) is background:

  • {{Element color/Table|}} → #f8f8f8.
This default can be overridden by parameter:
  • {{Element color/Table|default=#a0f4c0}} → #f8f8f8

The return values are complete color values to be used as a CSS style, including the # but not the ; character.
