how to style table rows dinamicaly?

[Catalin Kormos <ca...@yahoo.com>]

Hi there,

I want to specify a different CSS style to different
rows in a table. The actual style class name should be
obtained from the row bean. 

The problem is that the x:dataTable tag has an
attribute "rowClasses" which can't receive a value
binding like : #{rowBeanName.styleName}
(var=rowBeanName); this seems reasonable, the row bean
is available only when rendering the actual rows,
correct?

Then, how can i give a dinamic style value for each
table row? i can't specify a background color to the
actual text displayed in each cell, but it will not
cover the entire cell space...

I'm i missing something?

Thanks

Currently, you cannot apply a separate style to each row in a dataTable in 
the way you want.
 The only way (kind of a hack) to do it would be to iterate through your 
collection and build a String array with all the styles you wanted for each 
row. Then, you could use the rowClasses property and bind it to that String.
 Of course, this is less efficient since it requires two passes at your 
collection, but it would work.
