Hello,

Does anybody know how could I programaticaly change the background color of a webpart. I checked some forums and obviously google but I don't get any hint.

10x in advance. 

 

Hi,

you can do this by using css files.
here is a link t a site where you can create a css file easy:

And for something completely different: take a look at the swift webcam at: http://home.caiway.nl/~pmid

I checked your link but I can't see how can I use it. Maybe I was misunderstood. I want that: if anyone wants to "add new web-part" to his site he must have mine available with background color changed. Moreover, I want to let him chose the background color by adding a miscelanious property. And I just can't see where can I use CSS....

I am sure you do not need this anymore, however someone else can use the answer.

 Place the following in a CEWP to change style on the page. for background picture

<style>
#MSOZoneCell_WebPartWPQ6 .ms-WPBody {
background-image:url(url here);
}
</style>

for a background color

<style>
#MSOZoneCell_WebPartWPQ6 .ms-WPBody {
background-color:red;
}
</style>
