Accessing css from javascript in a ASPX form.

[Steve Holdorf]

I have a gridview that row's cells contain textboxes. Currently, I highlite the row, in yellow using javascript, by changing the backgroundColor of each of the rows cell's textboxes. To set the backgroundColor I use the .childNode[0].style.backgroundColor = 'Yellow', see code below: gridViewCtl.rows[index].cells[i].childNodes[0].style.backgroundColor = 'Yellow'; Now, I have a set of css files defined and would like to use a color defined in my css. Does anyone know how this can be done? Thanks, Steve

Sorry, I thought I placed it in the wrong forum but will not do it again.

Specify a class in the css, and use the className attribute in Javascript to set the class of the rows or the class of an element containing the rows.

Despite everything, the person most likely to be fooling you next is yourself.

Hi you can make use of this piece of code

gridViewCtl.rows[index].cells[i].childNodes[0].className = 'your_class_name';

Hope this helps.
