Highlighting currently selected row but keeping it highlighted while on context menu

Hello,

I have highlighted rows in my jQuery datatable using the CSS technique described at the following page
http://datatables.net/release-datatables/examples/advanced_init/highlight.html which works very well.
I have then integrated the jQuery context menu plugin which works ok as well only that the highlighted row just goes un-highlighted as soon as the mouse cursor loses the focus off the row (while browsing the context menu). I would like the css-highlighted row to remain highlighted on the selected row as long as the mouse cursor browses the context menu. How could this be done?
Is css highlighting out of control by jQuery?
If so is there any other alternative to highlighting rows with datatables? I believe that this is a very natural effect that the row must remain highlighted as long as the context menu is being displayed.

Thanks in advance,
Jimmy
