Is there a chance to have an alternating style for the entries (e.g. different background for better seperation?

Best regards

took a quick look .. and found this script which looks like what I was talking about

Here is what I have so far but have been unable to make this work. I guess I do not understand enough how the dashboard module populates the table rows. Any help would be great.

I placed the following javascript in the "header" textbox of the module settings:

<style>
 .odd{background-color: white;}
 .even{background-color: gray;}
</style>

<script>
function alternate(id){
 if(document.getElementsByTagName){ 
   var table = document.getElementById(id);  
   var rows = table.getElementsByTagName("tr");  
   for(i = 0; i < rows.length; i++){          
 //manipulate rows
     if(i % 2 == 0){
       rows[i].className = "even";
     }else{
       rows[i].className = "odd";
     }      
   }
 }
}

</script>

This is the dashboard ratings template:

<TABLE WIDTH="100%" CELLSPACING="0" CELLPADDING="0" BORDERWIDTH="0" ID="AltRows">
  <TR WIDTH="100%" style="padding-bottom: 3px;">
    <TD ALIGN="Left" WIDTH="75%" VALIGN="Middle">[FILENAME]</TD>
    <TD ALIGN="Right" WIDTH="25%" VALIGN="Middle">[RATING]</TD>
  </TR>
</TABLE>

This is the code that I placed in the "footer" textbox of the module settings:

<script>
window.onload = alternate("AltRows");
</script>

Unfortunately I can only get the first row to change color and every row after that is the same. DOes anyone know enough about how the dashboard module renders a table and can maybe explain what needs to be done to make this script work?

Thanks in advance, I will keep trying.
