Style the first col (all TD) using CSS?

[howa]

Hello, I want to style the first column (i.e. all TD in the first col)
using CSS?

I have tried, e.g.

td:first-child { color: red; }

but not working, any suggestions?

thanks.

If you're highlighting it because it's a heading, mark it up as such - use
th instead of td.

Not only is that more semantically appropriate, it also makes it trivial
to make your headings red:

th { color: red; }
