My table (that works perfectly on Chrome, FireFox and Opera) is not displaying correctly on Internet Explorer.

The background remains white! (I am using IE-8)

This is the Dojo version, it works fine:

  dojo.addOnLoad(function(){
      dojo.query("table tr:nth-child(odd)").addClass("odd");
      dojo.query("table tr:nth-child(even)").addClass("even");
  });
