  You can use the API function fnGetNodes if you want to do it at any old point ( http://datatables.net/api#fnGetNodes ). Or if you want to do it when the table finishes it's initialisation you can use fnInitComplete (and fnGetNodes): http://datatables.net/usage/callbacks#fnInitComplete . Or you could use fnRowCallback (and return the row!) if you wanted - although this is run for every time the row is displayed so could be considered sub-optimal.

  If anyone in the future is looking for this example, I did it via:
  
  [code]
  "fnRowCallback": function (nRow, aData, iDisplayIndex, iDisplayIndexFull) {
  $('td', nRow).closest('tr').css('background', aData[6] === true ? '#eef' : '#fff');
  return nRow;
  }
  [/code]
  
  In my case, the row color is set either light blue or white depending on the value (true/false) of the hidden column [6]. This sets the colors for *each* row regardless of how many but for my purposes the table will hold no more than 600 elements. There is no noticeable delay on any of the end users browsers.
