I would do something like this if you want to keep on client side without having to post back. Add an event to the DataGrid for the ItemDataBound this.grd.ItemDataBound += new System.Web.UI.WebControls.DataGridItemEventHandler(this.grd_ItemDataBound); Add code to add javascript events to each row private void grd_ItemDataBound(object sender DataGridItemEventArgs e) { if(e.Item.ItemIndex >= 0) { e.Item.Attributes.Add(onmouseoversetStyleOn(this)); e.Item.Attributes.Add(onmouseoutsetStyleOff(this)); e.Item.Attributes.Add(onclickhandleClick(this)); } } Add javascript code to you aspx page set the style of the rows function setStyleOn(elem) { elem.className = rowon; } function setStyleOff(elem) { elem.className = rowoff; } function handleClick(elem) { //do something setStyleOn(elem); }
