Customize a Datagrid Row

[nathaniel]

I believe that the Macromedia website says the following is not possible, so this question might be a challenge :D

I simply want to customize the appearance of a datagrid row based on information in the row; more specifically, I have a datagrid (table) that has a column for chapters and I want the background color of the datagrid to alternate with every new chapter.

There's nothing built into the component that allows you to customize the appearance of a specific datagrid row. But I'm guessing that there's a hack out there somewhere. I've tried unsuccessfully for the past few days, but I'm an amateur prorgrammer. Your input is most welcome!

Thanks

You can do this with a custom cellRenderer...

Here are some examples (the site is in French though)
