How to change color of text in rows with DataBinder

Question

I want to change color of text in specific column in each of rows. I have several columns, one of them is named DeliverState which can obtain one of two states - "Delivered" or "NotDelivered"

<td><%# DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "dbs").ToString()=="1" ? "" : DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "deliver_state")%></td>

I want to change color of the text (which can be Delivered or NotDelivered) in each row in column DeliverState to green if "Delivered" and red if "NotDelivered" .

What is the best way to do it in .aspx file?

Answer 1

Maybe add a class to the items based on your if condition? that way you can add a styling for eg

.NotDelivered
{ 
  color:Red
}

.Delivered
{
   color:Green
}


<td class="<%#Evaluated your choice : "delivered" : "notDelivered"><...the rest of your statement ..></td>

I would maybe suggest that you put the eval into aa variable that you can call on evaluation of the tenary operator.
