Hello,

Just Check the nth Child in odd and even rowwise

C#

<style>
tr:nth-child(odd) {
    background: #ff0000;
}
tr:nth-child(even) {
   background: #dddd21;
}
</style>

XML

<table>
<tr>
<td > Hi i am in first row first column </td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td > Hi i am in second row first column </td>
</tr>
</table>

Do you have any idea, how can i achieve this in Visual studio. I am refrencing .less file from html but its saying .less file not found

Ya, Install the Compiler tools such as "Koala" that is converted .less to css file.

If you want to convert .less to css without 3rd party tools Just You have to Install "WebToolsExtensionsVS.msi" it will converted .less to css after that add the css link in head section.

Thank You.
