I need to create background as yellow while selecting the gear icon for the menu option in the table row, I have tried the below code for highlighting the table row,
you can try below jquery to reset your background color where event will occur on focusout.
$(function(){
$("table.content-table.highlighted tr.content-row").on("focusout", function(){
$(this).css('background','#FFFF00 none 0 0 repeat'); // change color code as per your need
});
});
