Change GridView row color based on condition

Question

I want to change a particular row color of gridview based on some condition, I am using ASP.NET with c#. Thank you.

Answer 1

This method modifies both the back color (to dark red) and the text (to white) if a specific string ("TextToMatch") occurs in one of the columns:

protected void GridView1_RowDataBound(object sender, GridViewRowEventArgs e)
{
    if (e.Row.Cells[8].Text.Equals("TextToMatch"))
    {
        e.Row.BackColor = System.Drawing.Color.DarkRed;
        e.Row.ForeColor = System.Drawing.Color.White;
    }
}

Or another way to write it:

protected void GridView1_RowDataBound(object sender, GridViewRowEventArgs e)
{
    if (e.Row.Cells[8].Text.Equals("TextToMatch"))
    {
        e.Row.Attributes.CssStyle.Value = "background-color: DarkRed; color: White";
    }
}
