    Hi,

    I am hoping someone could help me out with a snippet I have written? Basically the snippet is working great (thanks to Shaun http://rtfm.modx.com/display/revolution20/Templating+Your+Snippets and Bob http://bobsguides.com/custom-db-tables.html). It returns all the info I need from a custom table and allows you to add a template and rowClass as parameters.

    The question I have is how to alternate the rowClass? I would need to add another parameter to the snippet call like 
    &altClass=`someClass`


    My Snippet Code:
    <?php
// add package so xpdo can be used:
$path = MODX_CORE_PATH . 'components/its/';
$result = $modx->addPackage('its',$path . 'model/','modx_');

//$isbn = parameter value passed from snippet call

$rows = $modx->getCollection('ITS',array('isbn'=>$isbn));
$tpl = $modx->getOption('rowTpl',$scriptProperties,'itsRowTpl');
$rowClass = $modx->getOption('rowClass',$scriptProperties,'brown');

$output .= '<p>Total: '. count($rows) . '</p>';

foreach($rows as $row) {
   $resourceArray = $row->toArray();
   $resourceArray['rowClass'] = $rowClass;
   $output .= $modx->getChunk($tpl,$resourceArray);
}

return $output;


    I know this is probably more of a php question but any help or advice would be great!

    Many Thanks

    Try add this 
    $altClass = $modx->getOption('altClass',$scriptProperties,'yellow');
$i = 0;
foreach($rows as $row) {
   if($i % 2 == 0){
     $class = $rowClass;
   }else{
     $class = $altClass;
   }
   $resourceArray = $row->toArray();
   $resourceArray['rowClass'] = $class;
   $output .= $modx->getChunk($tpl,$resourceArray);
   $i++;
}
