Hi folks,
I output a list in alternating background colors per row. The first one
has a white background, the second a grey background and the third a
white one again.
I used to do this by simply setting either <tr bgcolor="white"> or <tr
bgcolor="grey"> after checking with PHP which row I am in.
Well, since switching to CSS I can't seem to get it right.
I tried the following:
tr1
{
background-color : #FFFFFF;
}
tr2
{
background-color : #DCDCDC;
}
However, as I understand the CSS spec, the background-color is not
automatically inherited.
Then I added the following class to the <td> elements:
td.content
{
background-color : inherit;
}
But with no luck...
Is there an easy way with CSS to create the same result as before? Am I
overlooking something?
TIA,
Joxn
