. I don\'t want that one to be taken from the odd/even css rule.

What is the best approach to get t

Answer 1

Hide the rows you want to hide calling .hide() for each table row, then call

$("tr:visible:even").css( "background-color", "" ); // clear attribute for all rows

$("tr:visible:even").css( "background-color", "#ffffddff" ); // set attribute for even rows

Add your table name to the selector to be more specific. Using :even makes it skip the Header row.
