HTML Table's background-color attribute is not generating a table with background colour in word

[Abhinandan578]

I am trying to import html-based table, that includes background color style attribute, to word. I am using the latest version docx4j-ImportXHTML - 11.4.8. When the table is rendered in word background color is not coming. I tried adding it to style attribute in <tr> and <td> . Only with <td> i was able to generate background color in word, even <tr> is not working.

<table style="background-color:gray" border=4>
   <tr>
      <th>Month</th>
      <th>Savings</th>
   </tr>
   <tr style="background-color: #ff0000;">
      <td style="background-color: #00ff00;">January</td>
      <td>$100</td>
   </tr>
   <tr>
      <td>February</td>
      <td>$80</td>
   </tr>
</table>

Output

The following xml is from a XHTMLImport converted document that was slightly simplified to improve readability. The highlight and shades are all in bold. As we can see shade property only got added to the <tc> and not to <table> and <tr> which is somehow unexpected.

From my experience colors in hex format are working
