Change menu item background color with javascript

[Mike]

Is there a way to change the background color of a menu item through javascript?  I've tried the adding the following code to the OnClientShowing event but it did not seem work:

 

 

 

 

var item = sender.get_items().getItem(1);

 

item.set_cssClass(

 

'blue_bkgd');

Thanks,

Hello Mike,

I am able to change the background-color by using following client code.

client code:

        var menu = $find("<%= RadMenu1.ClientID %>");
        var item = menu.findItemByValue('value1');
        item.get_element().style.backgroundColor = "red";

Hope this code will be beneficial for you.

Regards,
Shinu.
