I am facing an issue with a table where I have used tr:nth-child(odd) to alternate row background colors.

</tr>There seems to be a problem with my table layout. The nth-child pseudo selector is making every other column black instead of alternating rows. How can I fix this issue? Edit: I tried the row span example recommended, but it doesn't use the nth-child selector. I'm unsure of what I'm missing. Can someone provide some insight?
