Change CRM 4.0 selected row color

Question

I use the following solution on CRM 4 in order to colorize the CRM grid, depending on the values of several fields. It works fine, except the rows are not highlighted with a different color anymore when they are selected.

This is the usual interface:

This is my interface:

Is there anyway to get back the highlight color? And to change it?

Thinking about this a bit more, the issue here I suspect is that you are blanket changing the row colour when you initialise the grid. From the [linked] code:

if (new_date_value <= current_datetime) {
    InnerGrid.rows[i].style.backgroundColor="ff0066";
} else {
    InnerGrid.rows[i].style.backgroundColor="ff6600";
}

My first thought is to colourise only some of the columns in the row. Row highlighting would then apply to the rest of the row. This is just a quick lash-together. Further, it is untested.

You will get the idea and maybe write this to better to suit your requirements

E.g:

var colour1 = "ff0066";
var colour2 = "ff6600";

if (new_date_value <= current_datetime) {
    colouriseRow(InnerGrid.rows[i], colour1);
} else {
    colouriseRow(InnerGrid.rows[i], colour2);
}

function colouriseRow(myRow, cols){
    for(var i = 0; i < myRow.cells.length; i++){
        if(i > 2){ // skip the first 3 columns, colourise the rest
            myRow.cells[i].style.backgroundColor=myColour;
        }
    }
}
