Is there a way to implement alternating styles without having to assign
the class to each individual TD within every TR..?
A solution is to use a class like <tr class="even-row">
and target the <td>
elements using a css selector like tr.even-row td
for applying background styling. This method is compatible with all browsers. Alternatively, you could utilize tr:nth-child(odd)
and tr:nth-child(even)
, although these are considered to be css3 pseudo classes.
I am experiencing issues with Colgroup in IE8, particularly related to alignment (cols=A&SI Capital Allocation, Cap Var, A&SI Expense Allocation, Exp Var). Are there any solutions to address this problem?
If Colgroup is not functioning properly, keep in mind that columns only accept border, background, width, and visibility css properties. Since TD elements are not direct descendants of the col element, they will not inherit other properties. For a reliable solution, consider assigning a class to the TD elements and apply styling to their contents through that specific class.
