Re: two column table with alternating row colors using

Made some progress but still not there.

</xsl:stylesheet>

<xsl:if test="position() &lt; ceiling(count(../fmp:ROW) div 2)"> this
gives an error why?
<TD class="r{position() + 1 mod 2}">why cant I use this to alternate the
row/column data colour?
<xsl:value-of select="../fmp:ROW[ceiling(count(../fmp:ROW) div 2) +
position()]:Co"/>the existing line gives me the row position of the data I
want in Co but this line returns an error. Why?
</xsl:if>
