Hi,
I know there have been many questions about this topic.
(Events in List Page: After Record Processed)
This works and highlights any rows that are in the future:

if ($data["date"] > now())

$record["css"]="background:yellow;";

If I change it to:
if ($data["date"] = now())

$record["css"]="background:yellow;";
All rows get highlighted, I just want the row with todays date highlighted.

Suggestions?

First of all, = means asisgnment while == means "equals". So instead of
if ($data["date"] = now())
you can try this
if ($data["date"] == now())

Though it is not going to work as now() returns date and time while you only need the date. Check this for inspiration:
