How to change the background color of a h:inputText control inside a rich:Panel
- by kiransri
I need to change the background color of some h:inputText controls inside a rich panel based on a condition. This is to distinguish these controls as readonly.
I tried using styleClass and style properties but both did not work. styleClass is ignored and style colors only half of the textbox.
1) styleClass code :
In css :  
.readonlycontrol
{
  background-color: #C0C0C0;
}
In .xhtml page:
<rich:panel styleClass="inputpanel">
  <f:facet name="header" >
    <h:outputText value= "#{cardreqmsg.apptinfo}"/>
  </f:facet>
  <h:panelGrid columns="4" cellpadding="2" border="0">  
  <h:inputText id ="name" styleClass="readonlycontrol" readonly="true"/>
  .........
2)  style code:
<h:inputText id ="name" readonly="true" style="background-color:#C0C0C0"/>
Any help would be greatly appreciated
