The alternating colors relies on some php code, the alternate color style being defined, and setting the class to the code that alternates it.

You should start with a page that has a working repeating region that is applied to the tr. From here you can add in this code to the top of the page:

php:
<?php

//WA AltClass Iterator
class WA_AltClassIterator     {
  var 
$DisplayIndex;
  var 
$DisplayArray;
  
  function 
WA_AltClassIterator($theDisplayArray = array(1)) {
    
$this->ClassCounter 0;
    
$this->ClassArray   $theDisplayArray;
  }
  
  function 
getClass($incrementClass)  {
    if (
sizeof($this->ClassArray) == 0) return "";
      if (
$incrementClass) {
      if (
$this->ClassCounter >= sizeof($this->ClassArray)) $this->ClassCounter 0;
      
$this->ClassCounter++;
    }
    if (
$this->ClassCounter 0)
      return 
$this->ClassArray[$this->ClassCounter-1];
    else
      return 
$this->ClassArray[0];
  }
}
?><?php
//WA Alternating Class
$WARRT_AltClass1 = new WA_AltClassIterator(explode("|""WADAResultsRowDark|"));
?>



Next you will need to add in the style into the head section like this:

<style>
.WADAResultsRowDark {
background-color: #DFE4E9;
}
</style>



Finally you need to locate the <tr> that is repeating and apply the following class to it so it looks like this:

php:
<tr class="<?php echo $WARRT_AltClass1->getClass(true); ?>">



You can change the alternating color based on the background color in the style.
