Scott Rossi replied:
<With Rev 2.7 it's fairly easy.  Create an image that the two colors you
want
stacked one above the other, with the height of each "bar" equal to the
textheight of your list field.  Set the backPattern of your list field to
the ID of the image and you should be good to go.
Execute the following in your message box for an example:
  go url "http://www.tactilemedia.com/download/striped_list_field.rev">

This doesn't seem to work on win98. Only the 'top' color appears. Same stack
on OSX is fine.
Any ideas (besides updating to XP! ;) )
