You might try doing this with CSS, instead, depending on Dreamweaver's level
of support for it.
<c:choose>
<c:when test="${status.count % 2 == 0}">
<c:set var="bgColor" value="transparent"/>
</c:when>
<c:when test="${status.count % 2 != 0}">
<c:set var="bgColor" value="#ccc"/>
</c:when>
</c:choose>
<tr style="background-color: <c:out value='${bgColor}'/>;" align="center">
Then your JSTL tag is embedded inside of an attribute value under both
circumstances where presumably Dreamweaver will just ignore it.
