Highlight row in standard report based on value in column...

Question

I am trying to highlight rows of a standard report based on the value of the column TICKET_TYPE.
I have been following the post: Highlighting a ROw in a tablular form based on a column in the row
but having difficulty. I receive the following error:
ORA-06550: line 1, column 34: PLS-00201: identifier 'SHRIMP' must be declared ORA-06550: line 1, column 7: PL/SQL: Statement ignored
ERR-1025 Error processing PLSQL expression. SHRIMP = 'SHRIMP'
My report query is:
select T.TRIP_ID,
T.TRIP_ID trip_show,
T.TRIP_ID trip_select,
T.DAYS_AT_SEA,
T.NBR_OF_CREW,
T.TRIP_START_DATE,
T.VESSEL_ID,
o.ticket_type ticket_type
from TRIPS T, one_ticket_type o
where t.dea_permit_id = :G_DEA_PERMIT_ID and t.trip_id = o.trip_id
I have created a new template called one-ticket-highlight.
row tempate 1 = <td #ALIGNMENT# headers="#COLUMN_HEADER#" class="t14data" style="background:red">#COLUMN_VALUE#</td>
row template 1 condition = use based on pl/sql expression
row template 1 expression = #TICKET_TYPE# = 'SHRIMP' (**** I have also tried without the quote)
any thoughts? thanks!!

Hi,
You can achive the same using javascript without changing the page template.
http://apex.oracle.com/pls/apex/f?p=27576:8
here is the code for the same
<style>
.myclass{ background-color:red;text-align:center}
</style>
<script src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.4.2/jquery.js "></script>
<script>
$(function(){
   $("td [headers='DEPTNO']").each( function(i){
       if($(this).html() == $v('P8_DEPTNO'))  //value of the textfield
           ele = $("td [headers='ENAME']").eq(i)
           ele.removeClass('t20data');   //i'm using theme 20 so t20data .. u need to change this part
           ele.addClass('myclass');
</script>Regards,
