repeating regions, alternating bg colours

message from chrisallen76 on 16 Jul 2004
Hello

Can someone tell me how to alternate the table row background colours for a
reapeating region i have set up.

I want it to alternate between 2 colours like the way the forum pages do
between light and darker grey.

Thanks

chris allen

isAlternate = false
**BEGIN REPEAT REGION**
<tr><td class="<%If isAlternate Then "alternateClass" Else "normalClass" End
If%>"></td></tr>
isAlternate = NOT isAlternate
Next
**END REPEAT REGION**

But there are extensions which can automate this for you using the old bgcolor
or using CSS. There's probably even a cool CSS method I don't know about yet.

Hi

We have a free extension here for ColdFusion that does this.

You didn't say what server side language you are using.
