My favorite way:

<STYLE>
.evenrow { background-color: silver; }
.oddrow { background-color: gray; }
</STYLE>
<CFSET EvenOdd=ListToArray("oddrow,evenrow")>
<CFOUTPUT>
<TABLE>
<CFLOOP QUERY="foo">
<TR CLASS="#EvenOdd[IncrementValue(CurrentRow MOD
2)]#"><TD>#CurrentRow#</TD></TR>
</CFLOOP>
</TABLE>
</CFOUTPUT>

This allows me to define any styles I want in the STYLE part, including
background color, fonts, etc.  But then, I'm a CSS nut ...  Plus I like
using the MOD function and arrays.  Takes me back to my C days when
programming was so much more fun.  ;)
