Hi everyone,

I am trying to set the CssClass property of the TreeView Webcontrol. I have created a new Style Sheet, and place the following code inside:

.treeNodeStyle
{
background:#dcdcdc;
color:green;
font-size:12pt;
font-family:Arial;
}

Now, how the heck do I use this Style Sheet to format my Treeview control? I have tried the obvious, setting the CssClass property of the control to be .treeNodeStyle, treeNodeStyle, or TreeNodeStyle.css. I have also included the following line in <HEAD> section of the page the treeview control is on:

<LINK href=&quot;TreeNodeStyle.css&quot; type=&quot;text/css&quot; rel=&quot;stylesheet&quot;>

And nothing is working.... Do I have to paste the Style Sheet code directly as the CssClass property? This seems ridiculous if it is the case.....

Cheers and thanks a million :) Chris

Hi Chris,

I'm not familiar with vb.net and the treeview webcontrol, but this is the way you add an stylesheet class to an HTML-tag (for example <p>:

--------code in yourCSSfile.css---------
.treeNodeStyle
{
background:#dcdcdc;
color:green;
font-size:12pt;
font-family:Arial;
}
----------------------------------------

<html>
<head>
<LINK href=&quot;yourCSSfile.css&quot; type=&quot;text/css&quot; rel=&quot;stylesheet&quot;>
</head>
<body>
<p class=&quot;treeNodeStyle&quot;>
</body>
</html>

Hope this helps,
Erik

You can use the following properties in the vb codebhind file on page_load method as follows..

TreeView1.DefaultStyle = "BACKGROUND:#8095C4; MARGIN: 1px; PADDING: 1px; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; COLOR: WHITE; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana"

TreeView1.SelectedStyle = "BACKGROUND:#2c4d9c; MARGIN: 1px; PADDING: 1px; BORDER:#2C4D9C 1px SOLID; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-WEIGHT: bold; COLOR: WHITE; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana"

TreeView1.HoverStyle = "WIDTH: 100%;FONT-SIZE: 10pt;BACKGROUND-COLOR: #2c4d9c;"

It works for me..!

Thanks,
Srikanth

Or you could add CssClass="treeNodeStyle" in the asp: tag

Wow JT that almost looked like you knew what you were doing!
