Question

Trying to access the Selected row of a GridView by using JQuery to find the row with the background-color attribute set to the SelectedRowStyle background color. That color is #FF6600. I’ve tried

var row = $("tr").find().css("background-color", "#FF6600");

But that just sets all the rows to orange.

var row = $("tr[background-color=#FF6600");

That returns empty

var row = $("tr").find().attr("background-color");

Returns undefined

Answer 1

Try the .filter method.

var rows = $('tr').filter(function(){
    var color = $(this).css("background-color");
    return color === "#FF6600" || color === "rgb(255, 102, 0)" ;
});

I haven’t tested it, the rgb part may need to be adjusted to account for spacing.

Edit:

or better yet, this takes into account uppercase vs lowercase

var rows = $('tr').filter(function(){
    var color = $(this).css("background-color").toLowerCase();
    return color === "#ff6600" || color === "rgb(255, 102, 0)" ;
});
