I have below <TR>:

Code: 
<tr>
<td bgcolor="Red"></td>
<td bgcolor="Blue"></td>
</tr>

Is it possible to change the <TR> background color onmouseover and onmouseout put the default colors back to <TD>s?

On my actual scenario I have a lot more <TD>s.

Thanks in advanced,

Mike

How 'bout this?
Code: 
<script type="text/javascript">
function changeBG(objRow, mouseState)
    {
    if (mouseState == 'on')
        {
        	sColor = '#eeeeee';			
			tColor = '#000000';
    }
    else if (mouseState == 'off')
        {
        	sColor = '#FFFFFF';
			tColor = '#000000';
    }
    objRow.bgColor = sColor;
	objRow.style.color = tColor;
	}
</script>


<tr onMouseOver="changeBG(this, 'on');" onMouseOut="changeBG(this, 'off');">
  <td bgcolor="Red"></td>
  <td bgcolor="Blue"></td>
</tr>
Change 'sColor' and 'tColor' to be whatever colors you want to use.



Hope This Helps!

As always thanks.

try this too:

Code: 
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN"
	"[URL unfurl="true"]http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">[/URL]

<html>
<head>
<title>Untitled</title>

<style type="text/css">

.c1 { background-color: red; }
.c2 { background-color: green; }
.c3 { background-color: gray; }
.c4 { background-color: yellow; }
.c5 { background-color: aqua; }

.cellOver { background-color: white; }

</style>

<script language="javascript"><!--

function changeColor(blnOver, rowTarget) {
    var cells = rowTarget.cells;
    for (var i = 0; i < cells.length; i++) {
        cells[i].className = (blnOver) ? "cellOver" : ("c" + (i + 1))
    }
}

--></script>
</head>

<body>

<table><tr onmouseover="changeColor(true, this);" onmouseout="changeColor(false, this);">
<td class="c1">Stuff</td>
<td class="c2">Stuff</td>
<td class="c3">Stuff</td>
<td class="c4">Stuff</td>
<td class="c5">Stuff</td>
</tr><tr onmouseover="changeColor(true, this);" onmouseout="changeColor(false, this);">
<td class="c1">Stuff</td>
<td class="c2">Stuff</td>
<td class="c3">Stuff</td>
<td class="c4">Stuff</td>
<td class="c5">Stuff</td>
</tr><tr onmouseover="changeColor(true, this);" onmouseout="changeColor(false, this);">
<td class="c1">Stuff</td>
<td class="c2">Stuff</td>
<td class="c3">Stuff</td>
<td class="c4">Stuff</td>
<td class="c5">Stuff</td>
</tr></table>

</body>
</html>

Ecobb, I am facing the same problem that I had originally. Whatever code I try won't overwrite the <TD>s color!

Thanks cLFlaVA for the code. The problem I have with it is on mouseover it make the fonts bigger. My font is set to 10px but onmouseover the font is changing to something like 12px. Do you know why this is happening?

Thanks,

Mike

Add an additional style:

Code: 
<style type="text/css">

[blue]td { font-size: 10px; }[/blue]

.c1 { background-color: red; }
.c2 { background-color: green; }
.c3 { background-color: gray; }
.c4 { background-color: yellow; }
.c5 { background-color: aqua; }

.cellOver { background-color: white; }

</style>

Make sure you don't have any other overriding styles that might be doing that.

For the record (and not to confuse), the above style changes can be achieved in most non-IE browsers without any JavaScript. Simply make the style as follows:

Code: 
<style type="text/css">

.c1 { background-color: red; }
.c2 { background-color: green; }
.c3 { background-color: gray; }
.c4 { background-color: yellow; }
.c5 { background-color: aqua; }

tr:hover td { background-color: white; }

</style>
And then remove all the JavaScript from your page.

Then provide your complete code. No one here is a mindreader.

From my experience, changing the style of a table row may not necessarily change the style of table cells, especially if the cells have their own style.

tsdragon, have you read any of the posts?

feshangi, that's nice code, but I'll need to see the style definitions as well. you don't need a <div> in there. if you get rid of the <div> and make your style as follows:

Code: 
<style type="text/css">

td { font-size: 10px; }

.c1 { background-color: red; }
.c2 { background-color: green; }
.c3 { background-color: gray; }
.c4 { background-color: yellow; }
.c5 { background-color: aqua; }

.cellOver { background-color: white; }

.c1, .c2, .c3, .c4, .c5, .cellOver { text-align: center; }

</style>

Does that fix your problem? Again, if it doesn't, please show ALL your code. The code you showed does not reflect the problem.

cLFlaVA,

You were right. I had other styles overriding your codes.

This is what was causing it:

body,td,th {
font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
font-size: 10px;
}

Now it's exactly how I wannted. You are a mindreader :)

Thanks,

Mike

cLFlaVA: of course I've read the other posts! Is there some reason you asked?

Because none of my posts talk about changing the color of <tr>, but rather <td>.

That is what I was commenting on.
