JQuery: Set GridView Row Color on the Base of Any Column Value

In the example I am showing data from the following table:

Data from table
                                       Figure 1

The following is the script of my Employee table:

  1. CREATE TABLE [dbo].[Employee](  
  2.     [ID] [int] IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL,  
  3.     [Name] [varchar](50) NULL,  
  4.     [Email] [varchar](500) NULL,  
  5.     [Country] [varchar](50) NULL,  
  6.     [ProjectID] [intNULL,  
  7.     [ManagerName] [varchar](50) NULL,  
  8.  CONSTRAINT [PK_Employee] PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED   
  9. (  
  10.     [ID] ASC  
  11. )WITH (PAD_INDEX  = OFF, STATISTICS_NORECOMPUTE  = OFF,   
  12. IGNORE_DUP_KEY = OFF, ALLOW_ROW_LOCKS  = ON,   
  13. ALLOW_PAGE_LOCKS  = ONON [PRIMARY]  
  14. ON [PRIMARY]  
  15.   
  16. GO  
The following is the data in my Employee table:

I am making a join with the Project table when showing records from this table.

The following is the Project table:

Project Table
                                          Figure 3

The following is the script of my Project table:
  1. CREATE TABLE [dbo].[Project](  
  2.     [ProjectID] [int] IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL,  
  3.     [ProjectName] [varchar](50) NULL,  
  4.     [ProjectLeader] [varchar](50) NULL,  
  5.  CONSTRAINT [PK_Project] PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED   
  6. (  
  7.     [ProjectID] ASC  
  8. )WITH (PAD_INDEX  = OFF, STATISTICS_NORECOMPUTE  = OFF,  
  9.  IGNORE_DUP_KEY = OFF, ALLOW_ROW_LOCKS  = ON,   
  10.  ALLOW_PAGE_LOCKS  = ONON [PRIMARY]  
  11. ON [PRIMARY]  
  12.   
  13. GO  
The following is the data in my Project table:

Here when showing records I am setting the row background color where the Country value is India:

row back color

If you want to set Column background color then use the following changes:
  1. $(document).ready(function() {  
  2.     $('#gvData').empty();  
  3.     $.ajax({  
  4.         type: "POST",  
  5.         contentType: "application/json; charset=utf-8",  
  6.         url: "Default3.aspx/BindEmployees",  
  7.         data: "{}",  
  8.         dataType: "json",  
  9.         success: function(result) {  
  10.             $("#gvData").append("<tr style='background-color:red; color:white; font-weight:bold;'><td style='text-align:left;'>ID</td><td style='text-align:left;'>Name</td><td style='text-align:left;'>Email</td><td style='text-align:left;'>Country</td><td style='text-align:left;'>Project name</td><td style='text-align:left;'>Manager Name</td></tr>");  
  11.             for (var i = 0; i < result.d.length; i++) {  
  12.                 var Country = result.d[i].Country;  
  13.                 if (Country.indexOf('India') != -1) {  
  14.                     $("#gvData").append("<tr  style='background-color:#DC143C; font-family:Verdana; font-size:10pt;color:White;'><td style='text-align:left;'>" + result.d[i].ID + "</td><td style='text-align:left;'>" + result.d[i].Name + "</td><td style='text-align:left;'>" + result.d[i].Email + "</td><td style='text-align:left; background-color:green;'>" + result.d[i].Country + "</td><td style='text-align:left;'>" + result.d[i].ProjectID + "</td><td style='text-align:left;'>" + result.d[i].ManagerName + "</td></tr>");  
  15.                 } else {  
  16.                     $("#gvData").append("<tr style='background-color:skyblue; font-family:Verdana; font-size:10pt ;'><td style='text-align:left;'>" + result.d[i].ID + "</td><td style='text-align:left;'>" + result.d[i].Name + "</td><td style='text-align:left;'>" + result.d[i].Email + "</td><td style='text-align:left;'>" + result.d[i].Country + "</td><td style='text-align:left;'>" + result.d[i].ProjectID + "</td><td style='text-align:left;'>" + result.d[i].ManagerName + "</td></tr>");  
  17.                 }  
  18.             }  
  19.         },  
  20.         error: function(result) {  
  21.             alert("Error");  
  22.         }  
  23.     });
