[Haroon idrees]

Hello
I am new to python world . any one can help to guide how we
declare variables in python template script and use in if else block
and vary it

for example
//need to declare variable here
//for example x=0
{% for message in message %}
//need to put if condition here
//ifequal x 0
<tr bgcolor="#DDDDDD">
//x=1
//need to put else condition here
<tr bgcolor="#FFFFFF">
x=0
<td width='20%'> <a
href="/restmessage/mzubair.ahmed?format=xml">mzubair.ahmed </a></td>

<td width='60%'>
test
</td>
<td width='20%'> 2008-12-12 05:13:45.788901</td>
</tr>

{%endfor%}

No, you can't do that, by design.

But a quick reading of the documentation for the for tag would show
you how it should be done: use forloop.counter0.

Or if it's just to alternate between odd and even rows, use the
builtin {% cycle %} tag:
