PageBlock Table row conditional styling based on page parameter value

I am trying to have the selected row highlighted when the select button is clicked.
Since there is no action associated with the select command link, the page refreshes after clicking select, thus erasing any styling not based on the parameter ConId.
I am trying to have the styling applied conditionally based on the page parameter ConId.

<apex:page standardController="Account"> <apex:form > <apex:pageblock > <apex:pageblocktable value="{!account.Contacts}" var="item"> <apex:column headerValue="Select"> <apex:commandLink > <Apex:Outputtext value="Select"/> <apex:Param name="ConId" value="{!item.id}"/> </apex:CommandLink> </apex:column> <apex:column value="{!item.name}" style="{!if(item.id='{!$CurrentPage.parameters.ConId}','color:red','color:black')}"/> <apex:Column value="{!item.title}"/> <apex:Column value="{!item.Phone}"/> <apex:Column value="{!item.email}"/> <apex:Column value="{!item.mobilephone}"/> <apex:Column value="{!item.Inactive__c}"/> <apex:Column value="{!item.id}"/> </apex:pageblockTable> </apex:Pageblock> <br/> <br/> <apex:OutputLink value="{!account.ContactCallURL1__c}{!$CurrentPage.parameters.ConId}{!account.ContactCallURL2__c}"> <apex:OutputText style="color:blue;" value="Next"/> </apex:OutputLink> strId = {!$CurrentPage.parameters.ConId} </apex:form> </apex:page>

</apex:form> 
</apex:page>

Please try adding rerender="SOMEDUMMYNAME" on commandlink and check once.

If I add that, the refresh does not happen and the page parameter ConId is not set. I need a way to have the refresh occur, but on page load, look to see if the contactid in the table matches the ConId parameter, then highlight the row based on that match.

Try above code

Each time I add a re-render attribute, the refresh stops working, and I don’t get the parameter set. This line of code does not work I need the if statement to be able to see the ConId parameter. If I remove the ‘’ from {!$Currenpage.parameters.ConId}, I get a “syntax error” displayed.
