[RESOLVED] Change Backcolor on Template Field

I would like to change the Backcolor of this Template field based on the output of this function.

      
            <%# OTDClass(Eval("OTDClass").ToString(), Eval("Hide").ToString())%>
      

I have tried to do this at the RowDataBound event as well as the RowCreated events.

        If e.Row.Cells(4).Text = "Shipped" Then
            e.Row.Cells(4).BackColor = System.Drawing.Color.Gold
        End If

Neither seem to have any effect on the backcolor.

Is there anthor method IO can use here?

Hi,

Create a style like :

then in code behind,

write code

If e.Row.Cells(4).Text = "Shipped" Then
            e.Row.Cells[0].CssClass ="bb"
        End If

Hope it helps.

Unfortunately no.  

I belive that's because the Function inside the template is being evaluated after the RowDataBound and RowCreated events are fired.

I can only guess I need to move the " IF " statement to a different event.

Try If e. Row. Cells ( 4 ). Text.ToLower() = "shipped" Then... Try also using label and FindControl.

Hi,

Try wrapping up the template field inside a div and apply styles to div

Ex:

                                        
                                            

                                                <%# OTDClass(Eval("OTDClass").ToString(), Eval("Hide").ToString())%>
