Use this code to cause a row’s background color to change with a mouse over: <tr style=”background-color: #F4F9FF;” onmouseover=”this.style.backgroundColor=’#C1D0E4′;” onmouseout=”this.style.backgroundColor=’#F4F9FF’;”> This works in IE and FireFox.

CSS Alignment Tip
When positioning text on a page in CSS add this code to view the element borders: border-width: thin; border-style: solid; That way you can see where the spaces are and can adjust the elements spacing.
GridView Format Note
When applying a Format expression in the DataFormatString property of a column such as “{0:d}” the HtmlEncode property must be set to False. If HtmlEncode is set to True the format expression will not be applied.
