You could even write a quick udf to do this and make it even more readable: <cfscript> Function altRow(row) { if (row mod 2 eq 1) { return '.high'; } else { return '.low'; } } </cfscript> Then just do: <td class="#altRow(get_events.currentrow)#"> #dateformat(get_events.event_date, "ddd")# </td> Chris Peterson Gainey IT Adobe Certified Advanced Coldfusion Developer -----Original Message----- From: gary gilbert [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, September 27, 2007 8:18 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: Re: Why wouldn't the first cell alternate colors with this code? Hi Rick, If I may make a suggestion, put your style info into two classes and then this: <cfif get_events.currentrow mod 2> <td style="padding-top: 1px; padding-bottom: 2px; width: 35px; border-left: 1px solid ##aaa; border-bottom: 1px solid ##aaa; background: ##ccc; color: black; font-size: 11px; font-weight: normal; text-align: center;">#dateformat(get_events.event_date, "ddd")#</td> <cfelse> <td style="padding-top: 1px; padding-bottom: 2px; width: 35px; border-left: 1px solid ##aaa; border-bottom: 1px solid ##aaa; background: ##eee; color: black; font-size: 11px; font-weight: normal; text-align: center;">#dateformat(get_events.event_date, "ddd")#</td> </cfif> Will become: <style> ....High{ padding-top: 1px; padding-bottom: 2px; width:35px; border-left: 1px solid #aaa; border-bottom: 1px solid #aaa; background: #eee; color: black; font-size: 11px; font-weight: normal; text-align: center; } ....Low { padding-top: 1px; padding-bottom: 2px; width: 35px; border-left:1px solid #aaa; border-bottom: 1px solid #aaa; background: #ccc; color:black; font-size: 11px; font-weight: normal; text-align:center; } </style> ......... <td class="<cfif get_events.currentrow mod 2>.High<cfelse>.Low</cfif>"> #dateformat(get_events.event_date, "ddd")# </td> .......... Makes your code a bit more readable and weight a bit less.
