AlternatingItemStyle with SelectedItemStyle

[IT Purchases]

I've defined an alternating item style as well as a selected item style.  They both work fine, except that if I select an item (either a normal style one or an alternating style one) and then de-select it, the background color returns to white rather than the color i've defined in my style tags. How can I fix this?

Hello,

You can use css classes instead. Here is an example:

.MySelectedStyle td
{
    bacground-color: red;
}

.MyRowStyle td
{
    bacground-color: green;
}

.MyAltRowStyle td
{
    bacground-color: blue;
}

<SelectedItemStyle CssClass="MySelectedStyle" />
<ItemStyle CssClass="MyRowStyle" />
<AlternatingItemStyle CssClass="MyAltRowStyle" />

I used a CSS class for the SelectedItemStyle and defined backcolor style for item/alternating item in their respective tags, which solved my problem.
