Animated background when selecting ABTableViewCell subclass

I've started implementing a custom subclass of ABTableViewCell. All the cell rendition and so on is going just fine, but when the user selects a row I want it to change to another background color and then back again (as the user releases it) – and I would like it to be animated.

I've found answers to q开发者_StackOverflow中文版uestions how to color the background, but that don't quite do it, as the change of the background color isn't being animated.

Well this will help U,

CGRect a=CGRectMake(0, 0, 300, 100);

UIImageView *bImg=[[UIImageView alloc] initWithFrame:a];

bImg.image=[UIImage imageNamed:@"YourBackGround.png"]; 

 [bImg setContentMode:UIViewContentModeScaleToFill];

 cell.selectedBackgroundView=bImg;

 [bImg release];

I skipped using ABTableViewCell and instead subclassed UITableViewCell directly along with a custom LayoutSubviews (and let UIKit do the drawing).
