thanks Rob for correcting my mistake...

It should look like this... 

<tr onmouseover = "this.style.backgroundColor = ' red'"  onmouseout
"this.style.backgroundColor = 'white' ">

But again, the syntax will have to be like this:

<tr onmouseover = "this.style.backgroundColor = ' red'"  onmouseout
"this.style.backgroundColor = 'white' ">

<tr onmouseover = "style.bgColor = ' red'"  onmouseout=  "style.bgColor = '
white' ">

	or 
use the class element with stylesheets in the javaScript event....
