Thanks!

Yeah, I'm using tr:hover, but you're right - it doesn't work in IE6
(without some additional effort).
So I'll probably go with js approach, however it adds lots of code to
generated html page.

Out of curiosity - I guess I have an idea how to use afterFinish
callback, but how to "remove style settings at the element level to
allow the CSS class settings to properly cascade."? I mean which
function to use (and how)? I can see functions to get/set style, but
how to remove?
