render collection with index

[Andrew Stone]

Is there any method for getting the current iteration (for changing row colors) in the category partial?

<%=render(:partial => "category", :collection => @categories)%>

thanks,
andy

Use the variable category_counter in your partial.

Thanks so much!  I knew there had to be something there...just couldn't find it.

Andy,

The cycle method is a great way to do this. Here is an example:

<tr class="ListLine<%= cycle(0,1) %>">

Then just style ListLine0 and ListLine1.

That is cool.  I wish I new that before I wrote my row_class method. :)
