I am trying to change the background colour of all the rows in a table, I started out by using a for loop, but when there is a lot of data in the table it takes a shed load of time to complete.

Is there something like table.rows.all.bgcolor which I can set?

Thanks in advance

are you doing this dynamicly? if not
<style>
tr {background-color:#FF0000;}
</style>
<table>
<tr>
<td>
blah
</td>
</tr>

<script>
<!--
function change(){
for(i=0;i<table1.rows.length;i++){
table1.rows.style.background=&quot;black&quot;;
}
}
//-->
</script>
<body onLoad=&quot;change()&quot;>
<table id=&quot;table1&quot;>
<tr><td>a</td></tr>
<tr><td>s</td></tr>
<tr><td>d</td></tr>
</table>
</body>

Don't know if this helps,

document.getElementById(&quot;table1&quot;).style.background=&quot;red&quot;


<table id=&quot;table1&quot;>
<tr>
<td></td>
</tr>
</table>
