In my css, I have a table with zebra striping. e.g. white and light-blue.

Lets say I have three columns… what I’d like to do is be able to make maintain the zebra striping, and within css (no javascript) add shading/make the blues darker for each column.

Is that possible? Something like getting the “current” background color #AABBCC and then Adding #000011 to the current color to give me #AABBDD…

No idea if this is even possible, so just wondering. I’m just being lazy, as I don’t want to have to redefine my zebra striping for every column/column group I may have.

Thanks

    No, this is not supported with CSS, unless you were to use something like CSS expressions (which rely on Javascript).

    However, if you’re willing to use a preprocessor for your style sheets, you can use a library like LESS to introduce variables and perform addition like that. This example in particular uses Javascript as well, so that doesn’t really fit the criteria either.
