Datatables 2.0.0 "stripeClasses" removal

krutovdl

Since the "stripeClasses" was removed from the new Datatables version, what is now the proper way to capture every odd and even row in order to changes their background color? Please provide examples.

Use CSS's :nth-child() pseudo selector.

This is the default CSS for DataTables row striping.

This is the old code:

tr.odd {
--bs-table-bg: lightcyan;
}

tr.even {
--bs-table-bg: #c5fbfb;
}

Here is the new code:

-tbody->-tr:nth-child(2n+1)-{">-tbody->-tr:nth-child(2n+1)-{">tbl > tbody > tr:nth-child(2n+1) {

--bs-table-bg: lightcyan;

}

-tbody->-tr:nth-child(2n)-{">-tbody->-tr:nth-child(2n)-{">tbl > tbody > tr:nth-child(2n) {

--bs-table-bg: #c5fbfb;

}

This worked well except now the column widths are no longer behaving properly. Now all columns set to "visible: false" are indeed not visible but they are taking up the column width on the table. Which creates an appearance of the visible columns width being cut in half.
