Hey Jeff -
I tried your solution and while it did add rowStyle to stObj.stParam,
since I'm calling it on the displayTeaser/Page file before importing
the webskin, it's always set to "off". I'm back to my original problem
where since the rule is calling displayTeaser/Page individually and
not as a group, then there's no way to update the value... :/
