TableView enhancements for JavaFX 2.2

[Tom Eugelink]

And to continue on that thought; content related styling should not be in the CSS. The CSS should map css-class to looks, the content to css-class is something that IMHO better can be done by the control itself. You can then have all kinds of mapping logic, even provided by the user, to do that.

This technique can be used for alternating row or column colors, but not much else. What happens is that in the code a certain cell is assigned a CSS class, like Tadashi said: addStyleToCell(row, col) (or addStyleToRow). If all is as it should be, the TableView already should use this technique to visualize the selected row/column/cell.
