<div class="va-wrapper">
               
               <?php while($info = mysql_fetch_array($result)){?>
<div class="va-slice va-slice-1">
                    <table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">
  <tr>
    <td rowspan="2" valign="top"><img src="images/recent3.jpg" width="160" height="140" ></td>
    <td valign="top">  <h3 class="va-title">  <? echo $info['Make'] ?> <? echo $info['Model'] ?> <? echo $info['Year'] ?></h3></td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td valign="top"> </td>
  </tr>
                    </table>
<div class="va-content">
<p><div class="bubble"><? echo $info['Retail_price']?>$</p>
                            <? echo "<span class='echo_short'>".$info['Description_short_FR']."</span>"; ?>
                            <table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">
  <tr>
    <td width="16%"><img src="images/recent3.jpg" width="126" height="120" ></td>
    <td width="84%"><img src="images/recent3.jpg" width="126" height="120" ></td>
  </tr>
</table>
</div>          
</div>
</div> 
        <? } ?> 
        
          </div></div>

i tried:

 

 

 
.odd{
 color:red;  
}
 
.even{
 color:blue;   
}
 
 

<script type="text/javascript">
$(function(){
    $(".va-slice div.post:odd").addClass('odd'); 
    $(".va-slice div.post:even").addClass('even'); 
    
});
</script>

CSS3 provides a pseudo-selector for this called :nth-child. If you want something that works on much older browsers then you'll need to have your PHP code generate alternating class names, the most common method of which is using the modulus operator. eg:

 

$class = $rowNum%2?'odd':'even';
While you could apply the effect after the affect with jQuery (as you tried) it is unnecessary to involve Javascript in something such as this.

so how would i call the php in the wrapper?

 

You don't. You add the logic in the PHP page that is called so those classes are already in the page when it loads. Or, if the wrapper is a PHP page, then you would have to show how the page is built.
