Different cell bg color depending on iOS version (4.0 to 5.0)

Question

I have a custom grouped UITableViewCell, with a couple of UILabels on it. Since the UITableViewCell background color used to be pure white, it matched the UILabels\' default

Answer 1

In the delegate method tableView:willDisplayCell:, the UITableViewCell will have the background colour set to white or, in iOS 5, greyish.

You can change all your the backgroundColor of all your subviews.

- (void)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView willDisplayCell:(UITableViewCell *)cell forRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath {
    for (UIView* view in cell.contentView.subviews) {
        view.backgroundColor = cell.backgroundColor;
    }
}
