This template might be used to color the background of a table cell; by the second parameter the text color can be specified. When the mouse pointer is located at the cell, the background color hex code triplet is displayed as a tooltip.

Usage

edit

{{Coltit|RGB hex triplet of background color|RGB hex triplet of color|alignment letter|x=individual text}}

The template needs the colors hex code RGB or RRGGBB (not the color name); the 2nd parameters default value is 000 (black); possible alignement letters are: l (left), r (right) with default value center.
The parameter x= specifies a title text header different from its default value (color #).

For example:

{| class="wikitable"
|{{Coltit|F00|0FF}}'''red''' and complementary color
|{{Coltit|0ff|f00}}'''turq''' and complementary color
|{{Coltit}} no parameters, all defaults 
|{{Coltit|ffee11|x=yellow background colour=#}} 
|-
| colspan=4 title="background color: #FB2" bgcolor=#FB2 style="color:#FB2;text-align:center" | '''The background should be <u>light orange</u>, not black &emsp; <small>(Internet Explorer ''short form bug'')</small>'''
|}

results in

red and complementary color turq and complementary color no parameters, all defaults
The background should be light orange, not black   (Internet Explorer short form bug)

Move the mouse pointer to the table cell to see the background color value
