title_body: How to alternate row colors of tables in ePub files Can anyone tell me how to create tables with alternating row colors in an epub? For example, I might want the default background color to be white, but every other row would have a light blue background.
  
  Is there a good way to do that using a basic epub software program like Sigil, or by hand coding the HTML?
upvoted_answer: You can use the following CSS rules to style respectively even or odd table rows (See the Example on W3schools):
  
  tr:nth-child(even) {
      background-color: #f2f2f2
  }
  
  
  
  
  tr:nth-child(odd) {
      background-color: #f2f2f2
  }
