I offer 2 solutions. Use background-color: #xxxxxx;" instead of bg-color as background-color refers to the background color of the text and bgcolor is that of the page, table, or td. But, this will only highlight the immediate background of the text, nothing beond the pixels within the text.

However, if you wanted the whole td cell to changecolor, instead of just the background of the text then you can move your entire code to the td tag.
