Answer 2

You can try this code of block for setting background image of UITableviewCell

self.backgroundView = [[[UIImageView alloc] initWithImage:[[UIImage imageNamed:@"background.png"] stretchableImageWithLeftCapWidth:0.0 topCapHeight:5.0]] autorelease];

self.selectedBackgroundView = [[[UIImageView alloc] initWithImage:[[UIImage imageNamed:@"background_selected.png"] stretchableImageWithLeftCapWidth:0.0 topCapHeight:5.0]] autorelease];

Hopes it work for you. :)

Answer 3

For Cell

    cell.backgroundView = [[UIImageView alloc] initWithImage:[ [UIImage imageNamed:@"cell_normal.png"] stretchableImageWithLeftCapWidth:0.0 topCapHeight:5.0] ];  
    cell.selectedBackgroundView =  [[UIImageView alloc] initWithImage:[ [UIImage imageNamed:@"cell_pressed.png"] stretchableImageWithLeftCapWidth:0.0 topCapHeight:5.0] ];

For Tableview

    [mEditTableView setBackgroundView:nil];
    [mEditTableView setBackgroundView:[[UIImageView alloc] initWithImage:[UIImage imageNamed:@"apple.png"]] ];

Answer 4

//this concept is right but one problem is create when ur fastly scroll in uitable View then cell background color slowly change and indexing problem 

for Cell

    UIView *myBackView = [[UIView alloc] initWithFrame:cell.frame];
    myBackView.backgroundColor = [UIColor colorWithRed:1 green:1 blue:0.75 alpha:1];
    cell.selectedBackgroundView = myBackView;
    [myBackView release];

for table

    aTableView.backgroundColor = [UIColor colorWithPatternImage: [UIImage imageNamed: @"cloud.jpg"]];
    aTableView.separatorStyle = UITableViewCellSeparatorStyleNone;

//this concept is right but one problem is cteare when ur fastly scroll in uitable View then cell background color slowly change and indexing problem  so use this code

for Cell


- (void)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView willDisplayCell:(UITableViewCell *)cell forRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath
{
   cell.backgroundColor = (indexPath.row%2)?[UIColor lightGrayColor]:[UIColor grayColor];
}

Answer 5

You can set UITableViewCell background color/image, By following delegate method

 - (void)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView willDisplayCell:(UITableViewCell *)cell forRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath
 *)indexPath  
{      
     if((indexPath.row)==0)  
       cell.backgroundColor = [UIColor colorWithPatternImage:[UIImage imageNamed:@"cell_normal.PNG"]]; //set image for cell 0

     if (indexPath.row==1)  
       cell.backgroundColor = [UIColor colorWithRed:.8 green:.6 blue:.6 alpha:1]; //set color for cell 1

     tableView.backgroundColor = [UIColor colorWithPatternImage: [UIImage imageNamed: @"cloud.jpg"]]; //set image for UITableView

  }
