Use CSS *selectors*: The :nth-child pseudo-class, and add or remove an 
“odd”/“even” class name from the “tr” element in question when you sort the 
table as a fallback.  Then know that this has already been written and 
published several times; Google is your friend.  See the ECMAScript Support 
Matrix (sig) for an example of using both :nth-child() and classes for 
alternating rows.

The “From” header field of your posting is lacking your last name, Mike S
