I created a GridView in an ASP.NET application and used the Auto Format tool to apply an attractive style. Now I move the style markup to the CSS sheet, and I have a strange problem when the text in the title bar does not match the correct color (it should be white, but it looks bright blue). This problem only appears when sorting is enabled.
Everything else works fine. For example, I can change the background of the title to red, and it turns red, and the rest of the grid styles are applied accordingly.
Does anyone know what a deal is? The following are snippets of code. I am also pretty new to CSS. If anyone has any tips to make my CSS code better somehow, let me know.
Thank!
Here is the ASP.NET code. I can add ForeColor = "White" to HeaderStyle and everything works fine.
<asp:GridView ID="GridView1" runat="server" CssClass="grid"
AutoGenerateColumns="False" DataKeyNames="ID" DataSourceID="SqlDataSource1"
EmptyDataText="There are no data records to display." AllowSorting="True"
CellPadding="4" GridLines="Both">
<FooterStyle CssClass="grid-footer" />
<RowStyle CssClass="grid-row" />
<Columns>
<asp:BoundField DataField="Kingdom" HeaderText="Kingdom"
SortExpression="Kingdom" />
<asp:BoundField DataField="Phylum" HeaderText="Phylum"
SortExpression="Phylum" />
<asp:BoundField DataField="GenusSpeciesStrain" HeaderText="Genus species (strain)"
SortExpression="GenusSpeciesStrain" />
<asp:BoundField DataField="Family" HeaderText="Family"
SortExpression="Family" />
<asp:BoundField DataField="Subfamily" HeaderText="Subfamily"
SortExpression="Subfamily" />
<asp:BoundField DataField="ElectronInput" HeaderText="Electron Input"
SortExpression="ElectronInput" />
<asp:BoundField DataField="OperonLayout" HeaderText="Operon Layout"
SortExpression="OperonLayout" />
</Columns>
<PagerStyle CssClass="grid-pager" />
<SelectedRowStyle CssClass="grid-selected-row" />
<HeaderStyle CssClass="grid-header" />
<EditRowStyle CssClass="grid-row-edit" />
<AlternatingRowStyle CssClass="grid-row-alternating" />
And this is the content from the stylesheet that I use:
body {
}
.grid
{
color: #333333;
}
.grid-row
{
background-color: #EFF3FB;
}
.grid-row-alternating
{
background-color: White;
}
.grid-selected-row
{
color: #333333;
background-color: #D1DDF1;
font-weight: bold;
}
.grid-header, .grid-footer
{
color: White;
background-color: #507CD1;
font-weight: bold;
}
.grid-pager
{
color: White;
background-color: #2461BF;
text-align: center;
}
.grid-row-edit
{
background-color: #2461BF;
}
