I am using this code to navigate through keyboard in table grid.In my code i have not added this zebra stripes coding.If i add this zebra stripes is overriding my highlighting. eg:first row dark color and second row white color.I can see highlight through keyboard in first row but i can see in second row. [http://jsfiddle.net/hKZqS/15/] This coding for zebra stripes $("#myTable").tablesorter({ widgets: ['zebra']} ); I have an alternate solution is using border but how do i apply it here in my css.
