I noticed that you'd recently given someone a little help configuring rows on a list page. It got me thinking about an issue that web designers often come up against when dealing with lists: namely, an expedient method for alternating the background colour of each row.
I wondered if there was any trick in php that we could exploit to enable us to do this in CMS Builder?

<?php $bgColor = (@$bgColor == "#CCCCCC") ? '#EEEEEE' : '#CCCCCC'; ?>Just replace the '#CCCCCC' and '#EEEEEE' with the colors you want and put that just below the start of your foreach loop. Then you can print out the bgColor value like this:
bgcolor="<?php echo $bgColor; ?>"You could also use that to rotate a classname if you want to use CSS for your background color.
Hope that helps! :)
