Usually you have some elements in the XML input that correspond to the 
table rows, e.g. some item elements. When you process these with either
   <xsd:for-each select="item">
or
   <xsl:apply-templates select="item"/>
to create the rows you can simply use the position function to check 
whether it is an even or odd position
   position() mod 2 = 0
Use that test to generate an attribute for the background color or for 
the corresponding style class.
