   Hi there,

   I want each comment to display a different background color, this is nothing new but none of the old methods seem to work in wordpress 3 - The code seems to have changed since the odd/even method was the standard way to achieve it.

   comments are listed with:

   <?php if ( have_comments() ) : ?>
   	<h2><?php comments_number('No Comments', '1 Comment', '% Comments' );?></h2>
   
   	<ol class="commentlist">
   	<?php wp_list_comments(); ?>
   	</ol>

   Any help appreciated.

   The odd and even classes work for me. Check the page source and you'll see what classes are being generated.

   esmi: I believe the issue here is to maintain the features implemented by wp_list_comments(); (ie. threaded comments) while having comments of alternating colours.

   Which, incidentally, is what I would like to know how to do as well.

   Well, whatever, I'm using one of the many commenting APIs now.
