Question

I have several pages to do with several table on each page. I’ve got the JQUERY to do zebra stripes on even lines and change colour on hover. but, here it comes, it changes colour on THEAD and TFOOT and i can’t apply css to TFOOT to change colour.

here’s the code

<script type="text/javascript" src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-latest.min.js"></script>

<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function() {
    $(function() {
        $('tr').hover(function() {
            $(this).css('background-color', '#FFFF99');
        },
        function() {
            $(this).css('background-color', '');
        });
    });
});

$(function() {
    $("table.tiger-stripe tr:odd").addClass("oddrow");
});
</script>

Answer 1

apply the striping to table tbody only

$(function() { 
    $('table.tiger-stripe tbody tr').hover(
        function() { $(this).css('background-color','#FFFF99'); }, 
        function() { $(this).css('background-color', '#000000');}

    );       
    $("table.tiger-stripe tbody tr:odd").addClass("oddrow");  
 });
