A couple other properties you can add to TABLE, TD or TH tags are BGCOLOR, BACKGROUND, and BORDERCOLOR. These are not supported by all browsers, and may have very different results.

BGCOLOR	Creates a colored background using a hex number for the value.
BACKGROUND	Creates a specified image background (tiled). Has different results in different browsers.
BORDERCOLOR	Gives the borders of the TABLE color using a hex number for the value. Used in the TABLE tag only.
