Bob,

Thank you, that would seem to be exactly it !



In this instance Google wasn't my friend .....

(probably didn't find the right search terms)





Appreciatively,

Richard.

Subject: [docbook-apps] Striped tables in Html Help




I'd like to apply a "striped" effect to some tables that I'm creating in some 
Html-Help (ie chm) that I'm generating from DocBook.



Has anyone already done this ?

Is there a setting already available or will I need to customize something ?   
In which case what ?

(I'd also like to do it in a Revision History table)



Presumably it's a matter of having two styles and getting the stylesheet to 
apply them to alternate entries (tr's).  So I need also to be able to count the 
number of preceeding entries, though that seems like it'll just be a 
count(preceeding-sibling::*).



Apparently there's a tr:nth-child control in CSS3 but as I'm doing chm that's 
effectively IE and reported as not available there.





Regards,

Richard.
