Re: alternate row colours in foreach
Hi Murray, Peter, The element="tr" is not required if you use instead of . Tapestry components like For will automatically use the tag from the template. This doesn't have any side-effects, and keeps your template HTML valid for viewing in a browser or editing in an HTML editor. Cheers, Nick.

Sounds like you need to remove your 'tr' tag and live with my 'span' tag. Also, if it's still not working, post your html file.

Re: alternate row colours in foreach
murray -> my tr tag does have element="tr" within it. the problem was that i have a lot of css formatting within my code, and i had a class element within my table tag which was overriding the odd and even element tags. and once i remove that class statement, it works fine. but again thanks for your help. jesse -> i agree a cleaner implementation is always preferred. i am using the evenodd bean within contribtable but couldnt get it to work within the foreach component. if i find a way of implementing it, then it would be great, but for the timebeing the result is still the same. thanks to all again. tapestry rocks. - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: alternate row colours in foreach
That all looks very complicated. Typically people setup a bean in their page, http://tapestry.apache.org/tapestry4/tapestry/apidocs/org/apache/tapestry/bean/EvenOdd.html . Then, on each iteration of the row you say class="ognl:myBean.next" . Also, Foreach should be avoided whenever possible. For is much better in that it works inside/outside of forms without very much effort.

Re: alternate row colours in foreach
Hi Peter
I've been struggling with this alternating row thing for the last couple of
days and finally
cracked it this morning. Here is what I have:
[[Test.html]]
Action
Name
Phone
Mobile
Address
Notes
1
George
Smith
1234
0400100200
3 Claire
Way
No notes
End of list
[[Test.java]]
private int rowIndex = 1;
public void setRowIndex(int rowIndex) {
this.rowIndex = rowIndex;
}
public int getRowIndex() {
return rowIndex;
}
public String getRowStyle() {
if (rowIndex%2 == 0)
return "even";
return "odd";
}
[[Application.css]]
.even {
background-color: #f0f0f0;
}
.odd {
background-color: #a0a0a0;
}
And I'm not going to say HTH as I know it will.
Cheers
mc
PS I'm sure there is another way to do this using a bean but the above does
make sense in
Tapestry and you not only get the even/odd thing, you also get a row counter.
PPS The other bit I did was to move the content of the getRowStyle() method to
an
application class, I'm going to use this on lots of pages and if I change the
names of the
even/odd styles I want to do this in one place and not 50. So it became:
public String getRowStyle() {
return SomeApplicationClass.getRowStyle(rowIndex);
}

Re: alternate row colours in foreach
i tried this, within my html file
class="ognl:(beans.evenodd.next.equals('odd') ? 'odd' : 'even') and
this within my page file,
and this produces alternate colour blank rows just above my table and
my table is still the same.

Re: alternate row colours in foreach
eachEntry is the component id used in HTML eg ... will generate a class attribute with alternating "even" and "odd" for each row. ... and so on.
