Question

I have a table with a loop on a <tr> and I want to use two CSS classes for the rows, just like the attribute rowClass for rich:dataTable.

This is may part of code:

<table>
 <c:forEach items="${MyBean.Result}" var="item">
  <tr>
   <td><h:outputText value="${item.attr}" />
   </td>
  </tr>
 </c:forEach>
</table>

How can I alternate the CSS class on each row of the HTML table?

Answer 1

tr.odd { background-color: #EEDDEE }
tr.even { background-color: #EEEEDD }

then use

<c:forEach items="${element}" var="myCollection" varStatus="loopStatus">
  <tr class="${loopStatus.index % 2 == 0 ? 'odd' : 'even'}">
     <td><h:outputText value="${item.attr}" />
     </td>
  </tr>
</c:forEach>
