[RESOLVED] [2005] Gridview row color change on mouseover

I migrated this code from vs 03 to vs 05.

When I execute code below in my vs 05 the row color has changed but when mouseout from row the color will change back to only 1 type of color.

Can any one figure out my wrong ?

asp Code:

Protected Sub grdStatusMaster_RowDataBound(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Web.UI.WebControls.GridViewRowEventArgs) Handles grdStatusMaster.RowDataBound
        If e.Row.RowType = ListItemType.Item Or e.Row.RowType = ListItemType.AlternatingItem Then
 
            e.Row.Attributes.Add("onmouseover", "this.style.backgroundColor='ghostwhite'")
            If e.Row.RowType = ListItemType.Item Then
                e.Row.Attributes.Add("onmouseout", "this.style.backgroundColor='WhiteSmoke'")
            Else
                e.Row.Attributes.Add("onmouseout", "this.style.backgroundColor='White'")
            End If
 
        End If
        
 
    End Sub

You are using the wrong Enum for comparison with the RowType property. It is one of the DataControlRowType values which indicate if the Row is a Header, Data, Footer etc.

Use the Row.RowState property to check for the Alternate Row.

Code:

Protected Sub GridView1_RowDataBound(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Web.UI.WebControls.GridViewRowEventArgs) Handles GridView1.RowDataBound

  If e.Row.RowType = DataControlRowType.DataRow Then
      e.Row.Attributes.Add("onmouseover", "this.style.backgroundColor='ghostwhite'")

      If (e.Row.RowState And DataControlRowState.Alternate) = DataControlRowState.Alternate Then
          e.Row.Attributes.Add("onmouseout", "this.style.backgroundColor='WhiteSmoke'")
      Else
          e.Row.Attributes.Add("onmouseout", "this.style.backgroundColor='White'")
      End If
  End If
End Sub
