Datalist with Checkbox selection

[Out2work]

Hi,
I have a datalist control and inside i have placed a checkbox control now what i need is to be able to check multiple items and the selected items border change to say green or unselect they remain grey.
I am using ajax if its any help.

can anyone provide some suggestions on how to achieve this as im having issues with the changing of borders.

You can set the color property of the row (or div) using a function that you call with the current rows value...

E.G. In code behind something likke (and this is vb code...so if you are c# just convert it..)

function [red]SetColor[/red](value as boolean) as string
if value=1 then
return " style='color:blue'"
else
return " style='color:red'"
end if
end function

and in your dataview

<div <%[red]SetColor[/red](eval("BooleanColumn")%>other html</div>

the result would look somehting like

<div style='color:blue'>other html</div>
or rendered
[blue]other html[/blue]
