Hi Brett,
Based on my understanding, you want to change the lines color in the
datagrid control.
Actually, in asp.net, webform datagrid control will render as <table> html
element in client.
For example, if you use Sql Server's default datatable "jobs" to bind the
DataGrid like this:
private void Page_Load(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
SqlDataAdapter adapter=new SqlDataAdapter("select * from jobs",
"server=localhost; database=pubs;uid=sa;pwd=");
DataSet ds=new DataSet();
adapter.Fill(ds);
DataGrid1.DataSource=ds;
DataGrid1.DataBind();
}
At client, it will render something like this:
<table cellspacing="0" rules="all" border="1" id="DataGrid1"
style="height:192px;width:352px;border-collapse:collapse;Z-INDEX: 101;
LEFT: 48px; POSITION: absolute; TOP: 48px">
<tr>
<td>job_id</td><td>job_desc</td><td>max_lvl</td><td>enum</td>
</tr>
........
</table>
You can see that, the grid lines in the DataGrid are actually the borders
of <td> elements in <table> and <tr>, it default color is black. If you
want to give a different color to it, you should apply bordercolor
attribute to the entire <table>. In asp.net server side, you may use
DataGrid.Attributes.Add method to add the attribute. Do like this:
private void Page_Load(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
SqlDataAdapter adapter=new SqlDataAdapter("select * from jobs",
"server=localhost; database=pubs;uid=sa;pwd=");
DataSet ds=new DataSet();
adapter.Fill(ds);
DataGrid1.DataSource=ds;
DataGrid1.DataBind();
this.DataGrid1.Attributes.Add("bordercolor","red");
}
This will render as:
<table cellspacing="0" bordercolor="red" rules="all" border="1"
id="DataGrid1"
style="height:192px;width:352px;border-collapse:collapse;Z-INDEX: 101;
LEFT: 48px; POSITION: absolute; TOP: 48px">
<tr>
<td>job_id</td><td>job_desc</td><td>max_lvl</td><td>enum</td>
</tr>
........
</table>
Then you will get a red grid line DataGrid control.
