bootstrap cell mouseover background change

Viewed 41

Is there any way to control table cell to highlight the cell (by changing the background color) when mouseover it?

Currently, I see table-hover but that is impacting the entire row i.e. all the cell's (in that row) background is changing.

Do not use .table-hover and use the following css.

tr > td:hover {
   /* css rules */
}

tr > td:hover {
  background-color:red;
  color: white;
}
<link href="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/bootstrap/5.0.2/css/bootstrap.min.css" rel="stylesheet"/>
<table class="table table-bordered">
  <thead>
    <tr>
      <th scope="col">#</th>
      <th scope="col">First</th>
      <th scope="col">Last</th>
      <th scope="col">Handle</th>
    </tr>
  </thead>
  <tbody>
    <tr>
      <th scope="row">1</th>
      <td>Mark</td>
      <td>Otto</td>
      <td>@mdo</td>
    </tr>
    <tr>
      <th scope="row">2</th>
      <td>Jacob</td>
      <td>Thornton</td>
      <td>@fat</td>
    </tr>
    <tr>
      <th scope="row">3</th>
      <td colspan="2">Larry the Bird</td>
      <td>@twitter</td>
    </tr>
  </tbody>
</table>

You may not need to use .table-bordered
