jQuery Grid Plugin - jqGrid

Using the basic template if I select a row the row background turns blue.

Any black cell color turns white (which is good) but if a cell color is specifically set with setCell

jQuery(”#a_today”).setCell(rowid,’l_wins’,”,{color:’red’});

then that color will not change to white. This color clashes with some cells when they are highlighted.

Is it possible to force all selectedrow cell colors to white?

--------------

This is something I tried:

onSelectRow: function(id){
if(id && id!==lastsel){
var myrowdata = jQuery('#a_today').setCell(id,'name','',{color:'white'});
lastsel=id;
}
},

That sort of works in that it does change the cell color of name to white when the row is selected.

But if I then select another row it stays white (and thus is white on a white background - it doesn't go back to the original cell color.
