Alternating rows in a list

[MisterX]

Uh, what, where?

I thought it was about html text and text color... not stripes...

Although with some ink effects... 

The download page with all the possible votes, comments you can add @

http://www.monsieurx.com/modules.php?name=Downloads&d_op=viewdownloaddetails
&lid=75

But i think it should be time somebody voted on (oh, it's not there [again])

Truly, it's not a negative bug, RunRev's fields do so much already, it's
beyond 
most standards. But there's lots of rough corners IMOPO. Some are so
impossible 
to work around that im actually forced to run without the RevIDE or stop 
the debugger all together!!! It's scary!!!

 http://support.runrev.com/bugdatabase/show_bug.cgi?id=2781 - a true
blocker!

And that's only on W2K, W2K3 is now without RevIDE at all or crash non stop!

Thanks Richard for keeping the MC IDE up. Im currently making all my TAOO
tools 
compatible to it too now that the MGM is working!

Note that Devolution will need a bit of evolution to keep up - I hope to
challenge the RunRev team in features soon ;)

Like Wiki i think it's essential that a part of TAOO be public. 

And now, on to the MGM interface design... There's a challenge!
Making an original GUI is not in any link i've seen... ;)

cheers
Xavier
