  On zebra stripes table, how can I highlight every rows that are selected (instead of every other...

  Apr 11, 2017 03:38 PM|faujong|LINK

  Our table use zebra-stripes, which is what we want.

  <table tabindex="0" class="grid-content-table zebra-stripes">

  When selecting multiple rows, the table highlights every other row.
  Is it possible when selecting multiple rows, all selected rows are highlighted instead of every other row ?
  In the example below, I would like all rows selected to have background color of #278efc.

  .theme-entry .grid table.grid-content-table tr.even td
  {
  	background-color: #ffffff;
  }
  
  .theme-entry .grid table.grid-content-table tr td
  {
  	background-color: #f1f9fc;
  }
  
  .theme-entry .grid table.grid-content-table tr.selected td
  {
  	background-color: #278efc;
  }
  

  When I select 2 rows in a row, and I inspect the element, it says this:

  <tr class="selected highlighted"></tr>
  <tr class="selected"></tr>

  Thank you.

  Hi faujong,

  I try to reproduce the issue on my side and I got the same out put as yours.

  check below.

  

  I find that there are already background color is available at even number of rows and its priority is high.

  so because of this reason the color is not get changed.

  so here we need to set the priority of highlighting color to high.

  so you just need to change your css like below.

   

  .theme-entry .grid table.grid-content-table tr.selected td
  {
  	background-color: #278efc ! important;
  }
  

  Output:

  

  code:

  HTML:

  <table id="tableStudent" border="1">
      <thead>
          <tr>
              <th>ID</th>
              <th>Name</th>
              <th>Class</th>
          </tr>
      </thead>
      <tbody>
          <tr onmousedown="RowClick(this,false);">
              <td>1</td>
              <td>John</td>
              <td>4th</td>
          </tr>
           <tr onmousedown="RowClick(this,false);">
              <td>2</td>
              <td>Jack</td>
              <td>5th</td>
          </tr>
           <tr onmousedown="RowClick(this,false);">
              <td>3</td>
              <td>Michel</td>
              <td>6th</td>
          </tr>
          <tr onmousedown="RowClick(this,false);">
              <td>4</td>
              <td>Mike</td>
              <td>7th</td>
          </tr>
          <tr onmousedown="RowClick(this,false);">
              <td>5</td>
              <td>Yke</td>
              <td>8th</td>
          </tr>
           <tr onmousedown="RowClick(this,false);">
              <td>6</td>
              <td>4ke</td>
              <td>9th</td>
          </tr>
          <tr onmousedown="RowClick(this,false);">
              <td>7</td>
              <td>7ke</td>
              <td>10th</td>
          </tr>
      </tbody>
  </table>

  JavaScript:

  var lastSelectedRow;
  var trs = document.getElementById('tableStudent').tBodies[0].getElementsByTagName('tr');
  
  // disable text selection
  document.onselectstart = function() {
      return false;
  }
  
  function RowClick(currenttr, lock) {
      if (window.event.ctrlKey) {
          toggleRow(currenttr);
      }
      
      if (window.event.button === 0) {
          if (!window.event.ctrlKey && !window.event.shiftKey) {
              clearAll();
              toggleRow(currenttr);
          }
      
          if (window.event.shiftKey) {
              selectRowsBetweenIndexes([lastSelectedRow.rowIndex, currenttr.rowIndex])
          }
      }
  }
  
  function toggleRow(row) {
      row.className = row.className == 'selected' ? '' : 'selected';
      lastSelectedRow = row;
  }
  
  function selectRowsBetweenIndexes(indexes) {
      indexes.sort(function(a, b) {
          return a - b;
      });
  
      for (var i = indexes[0]; i <= indexes[1]; i++) {
          trs[i-1].className = 'selected';
      }
  }
  
  function clearAll() {
      for (var i = 0; i < trs.length; i++) {
          trs[i].className = '';
      }
  }

  CSS:

  .selected {
      background: #278efc !important;
      
  }
  table {
      font-family: arial, sans-serif;
      border-collapse: collapse;
      width: 100%;
  }
  
  td, th {
      border: 1px solid #dddddd;
      text-align: left;
      padding: 8px;
  }
  
  tr:nth-child(even) {
      background-color: #dddddd;
      
      
  }
