This is a tidy way of alternating classes on some element.

In the view:

In your application helper:



def alternate(str1 = "odd", str2 = "even")

   @alternate_odd_even_state = true if @alternate_odd_even_state.nil?

   @alternate_odd_even_state = !@alternate_odd_even_state

   @alternate_odd_even_state ? str2 : str1

end
