Alternating Row style in DataGridView

[mike]

how can I change the font color for an alternating row where the
column data is formatted as a link?

setting a style in the stylesheet for

a {

color:white;
}

makes all links white (as expected)

and changing the ForeColor property in the AlternatingRowS tyle options
does not effect the <atag in the data column - it still shows up
blue. Placing additional formatting for the column will not help since
it will apply to all data in the column and not just the alternating
rows.

Did you try AlternatingRowS tyle.CssClass?

Hi,
Try add a css for the alternate row style....
In proproperty grid of the grid view you have alternaterowsty le...
in the cssclass field put your custom css....
and then in stylesheet file add the styles....

..alternaterow
{
background-color:Teal;
}
..alternaterow a
{
color:Yellow;
}
..alternaterow a:hover
{
color:red;
}

Thanks

I added the following to my stylesheet

..altgridrow {

color: white;

}

and then referenced it in properties for
AlternateRowSty le.CssClass=alt gridrow

apparently, since the column data contains a link it regards the
content as <atag and does not use the row style settings.

it might require iterating over the rows and setting the alternating
ones when the page loads or something like that.

I'd love to hear a easier method though :)
