Sure, I do it all the time. The following way is the fastest I came up with:

- Create a style sheet that looks like that:

// even rows
td.listrow1 {
       color:        blue;
}

// odd rows
td.listrow0 {
       color:        white;
}

Then write a DTML method/document (for example displaying objects in a folder):

<table>

<dtml-in "objectValues()">
   <tr>
       <td class="listrow&dtml-sequence-even;">
           <dtml-var title_or_id>
       </td>
    </tr>
</dtml-in>

</table>

sequence-even returns a boolean  set true (1) when we have an even row.

This is untested code, but should work.

Regards,
Stephan
