  DataList css style

  Dec 04, 2006 04:57 PM|LINK

  Hi,

  Can someone please show me how to set a different style for each cell in a datalist?  Right now the generated html for my datalist gives something like:

  <tr>
          <td class="daycss" align="Left" valign="Top" style="background-color:#EEEEEE;height:20px;">
            <div style="PADDING-LEFT:26px; PADDING-TOP:1px">Monday</div>                                                                                                      </td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
          <td class="daycss" align="Left" valign="Top" style="background-color:#EEEEEE;height:20px;">
          <div style="PADDING-LEFT:26px; PADDING-TOP:1px">Tuesday</div>                                                                                                            </td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
          <td class="daycss" align="Left" valign="Top" style="background-color:#EEEEEE;height:20px;">
          <div style="PADDING-LEFT:26px; PADDING-TOP:1px">Wednesday</div>                                                                                                          </td>
  </tr> 

  All have the same daycss style for each td cell, but now I want it to have a different css for each day, that can be pulled from the db.  For example, Monday row would need a style called moncss and Tuesday tuescss,etc..

   
  Is this possible?

  Thanks.

  Sure, in the code behind, make a public function:  

  Public Function GetDayCss(ByVal day As String) As String
          Return day.ToLower + "Css"
      End Function

   

   In the asp.net page, for example: 

          <asp:DataList ID="DataList1" runat="server">
              <ItemTemplate>
                  <div class="<%#GetDayCss(Eval("Weekday"))%>"><%#Eval("Weekday")%></div>
              </ItemTemplate>
          </asp:DataList>
