Color Change in table row

CaTcHmE

<span style='font-family: Arial'><br />
Hi to All,<br />
<br />
Please help me to resolve the problem,<br />
I have a table in a report where i need to set alternate color for the table row. I have done it, but in the JOBTITLE column if the value is consecutively repeating means i need to set color as next alternate color. i.e gray. For example the row constains emp no 1286,1323,1370 should be in gray color.<br />
Same as in the second highlighted rectangle box should be in silver color.<br />
<br />
I have also enclosed the image and rptdesign.<br />
<br />
Kindly help me to fix the problem.<br />
<br />
<br />
Thanks in Advance.<br />

Hey CaTcHmE,<br />
<br />
I had a simular problem (puting altarate row coloring on groups becouse we didnt have detail rows to show. I think the java script I wrote for that could help you.<br />
<br />
I written on the onCreate event of the group row (in Your case it would be detail row) the folowing SCRIPT:<br />
<pre class='_prettyXprint _lang-auto _linenums:0'>
if (reportContext.getGlobalVariable("alt_grp") == false)
reportContext.setGlobalVariable("alt_grp", true);
else
reportContext.setGlobalVariable("alt_grp", false);
</pre>
<br />
Then in the Properties of that row I went to the Higlichts tab and made a Condition on the ont he folowing:<br />
<pre class='_prettyXprint _lang-auto _linenums:0'>reportContext.getGlobalVariable("alt_grp") = Thrue</pre> to set the collor to gray.<br />
<br />
Now I can reimagine that to somting like this you still keep the above script but extend it somwat with somting like this:<br />
<br />
On the Data object were you want to keep an eye on the duble feature you set the following script on the onCreate event:<br />
<br />
<pre class='_prettyXprint _lang-auto _linenums:0'>
var rowLast = BirtStr.trim(''+reportContext.getGlobalVariable("PRODUCT_rlp"));
var rowLastp = this.getRowData().getColumnValue("PRODUCT");

reportContext.setGlobalVariable("rowLast", rowLast);
reportContext.setGlobalVariable("rowLastp", rowLastp);
</pre>
<br />
Now the Conditional for the higlicht changes a bit to some Thing like:<br />
<br />
<pre class='_prettyXprint _lang-auto _linenums:0'>
var switch = reportContext.getGlobalVariable("lastCollorHiglicht");
var switch1 = false;
var switch2 = false;
var switch3 = false;
if( reportContext.getGlobalVariable("alt_grp") ){
var switch1 = true;
}else{
var switch1 = false;
}

if( row["detailRow"] == reportContext.getGlobalVariable("rowLastp") ){
var switch2 = true;
}else{
var switch2 = false;
}

if( switch1 && switch2 ){
var switch3 = true;
}else{
var switch3 = false;
}

</pre>
<br />
This is a roug code example of course but I hope it nudges you to the richt way.
