How to apply color to the table row rather then each cells

[tony007]

Hi i want to use single <tr style="background: #FFB951;"> at start of html block for the following blocks of code but i do not know how to modify it so it does not disable the hyperlinks .In another word i want the color is applied to the table row rather than every individual cell.
Also i want to remove the underline for hyperlink.I be happy if some one help thanks

just like this :

<tr>
        <td width="5%" bgcolor="#C0C0C0"><? echo $numbers; ?>&nbsp;</td>
        <td width="35%" bgcolor="#C0C0C0"><a
        href="albums.php?albumname=<?=strval( $row['artist'] );?>"><b><?=strval( $row['artist'] );?></b>
        &nbsp;</a> </td>
        <td width="10%" bgcolor="#C0C0C0">467&nbsp;</td>
</tr>

second html

<tr>
        <td bgcolor="#C0C0C0"><? echo $numbers; ?>&nbsp;</td>
        <td bgcolor="#C0C0C0"><a
        href="./albumsongs.php?albumname=<?=strval( $row['album'] );?>&artistname=<?=strval( $row['artist'] );?>"><?=strval( $row['album'] );?></a>&nbsp;</td>
        <td bgcolor="#C0C0C0"><a
        href="albums.php?albumname=<?=strval( $row['artist'] );?>"><?=strval( $row['artist'] );?></a> </td>
        <td bgcolor="#C0C0C0">276&nbsp;</td>
