Formatting Tables with CSS

[eluser]pickupman[/eluser]
Check out the HTML Table Class docs from the user guide. You can see that you can set an alternate row start configuration.

Code:

//table template
$tmpl = array (
                    'row_alt_start'       => '<tr class="alt">',
                    'row_alt_end'         => '</tr>',
                    'cell_alt_start'      => '<td>',
                    'cell_alt_end'        => '</td>',

              );
$this->table->set_template($tmpl);

//CSS
tr.alt td {background: #ccc;}
