Item11469: Can't change the background colour of table cells

Hy, this does not work properly: TinyMCE picker > Insert/Modify table > Advanced > Backround color > Select a color> Color picker: mouse click anywhere in color-selection field generated allways black (#000000) (it is a new foswiki installation)

• Assigned to TinyMCEPlugin
• This cannot be easily fixed. Foswiki has no native TML syntax to represent table cells with coloured backgrounds. Please raise a feature proposal if you have some ideas what that syntax should look like. Personally I've thought

  |.red stuff |.green otherstuff |

  might be workable; need to research the syntax other wiki/CMS systems use. Related: FoswikiDOM
• Leaving this task open as a note to fix these TinyMCE formatting features which should be removed from the UI if they only get squashed in the HTML -> TML conversion process.

Sorry, this isn't easily fixed, but try Support.Faq43 if you'd rather have HTML tables

Confirmed, but set to ProposalRequired. Anything that changes TML syntax probably needs review with a proposal.
