In this article I will show you that how you can change the color of the GridView row by attaching the onmouseover event to the rows. The code shown below will work for the GridView control if the alternate item color is the same as the row color.
Attaching the Style to the GridView control:
Since, I need to attach a color to every row of the GridView control the best place for this is the GridView_RowDataBound event which is fired when a row is bound to the GridView control. Let's see the GridView_RowDataBound event:
|
protected
void
GridView1_RowDataBound(object
sender, GridViewRowEventArgs
e) { if (e.Row.RowType == DataControlRowType.DataRow) { e.Row.Attributes.Add("onmouseover", "this.style.backgroundColor='blue'"); e.Row.Attributes.Add("onmouseout", "this.style.backgroundColor='white'"); } } |
And this is it. Now when you move your mouse over the GridView row the row will highlight and when you move your mouse away from the row the row will change to its original color.
I hope you liked this article, happy coding!
