Highlighting a table row

Rails
1

Is there a way to get rid of the “onclick” here and just set the
highlight if the book.title == session[:book][:title]? The javascript
works fine for the onclick, but I want to highlight when the page
loads…

<% @books_by_subject.each do |book| %>

<% if book.title == session[:book][:title] %>
<%= book.title %>
<% else %>
<%= book.title
%>
<% end %>

<% end %>

Thanks,
Dave

Or is there a better way to highlight without using java script?

CSS?

<% @books_by_subject.each do |book| %>
<% if book.title == session[:book][:title] %>
<%= book.title %>
<% else %>
<%= book.title
%>
<% end %>
<% end %>

Then set the CSS style for #highlighted-row.

If you want to highlight multiple rows, you could use a class instead
of an ID to identify each row to be highlighted.
