Creates a striped list with alternating background colors, which is useful for differentiating siblings that have content spread across a wide row.
|
|
|
|
```html
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Item 01</li>
|
|
<li>Item 02</li>
|
|
<li>Item 03</li>
|
|
<li>Item 04</li>
|
|
<li>Item 05</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
```css
|
|
li:nth-child(odd) {
|
|
background-color: #ddd;
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
#### Explanation
|
|
|
|
- Use the `:nth-child(odd)` or `:nth-child(even)` pseudo-class to apply a different background color to elements that match based on their position in a group of siblings.
|
|
- Note that you can use it to apply different styles to other HTML elements like `div`, `tr`, `p`, `ol`, etc.
