How to Edit Header Row in Pandas - Styling

Question

I understand from here: How can I change the styles of pandas DataFrame headers?, that pandas column row is set by the set_table_styles method. I do not know the HTML code for the table styles. Can someone please help me simply add a background color black, and white text?

df2.style.set_table_styles(
   [{'selector': 'th',
   'props': [('background-color', 'black'),('font color', '#FFFFFF')]}])

this does not show the font color. Is there somewhere I can find a list of these properties?

This is Cascading Style Sheets (CSS)

You want 'color' not 'font color' (IIUC)

    df = pd.DataFrame(1, [*'abc'], [*'xyz'])

    df.style.set_table_styles(
       [{
           'selector': 'th',
           'props': [
               ('background-color', 'black'),
               ('color', 'cyan')]
       }])

Thanks pi. I found the 'color' shortly after asked. Thanks for the external references.

Hey, this is great. How would you make edits for only one column instead of all columns simultaneously?

@dayxx369 Were you able to figure this out? I would like to know how to split a particular cell into 2 columns. Something like this stackoverflow.com/questions/19115560/…
