Unknown pseudo-class or pseudo-element 'odd'.

[shapper]

Hello,

I am using JQuery 1.3.2 and the following code line:
$("table.Engine tbody tr:odd").addClass("Alternate");

I get the following error on firebug:
Unknown pseudo-class or pseudo-element 'odd'.

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks,
Miguel

Not sure why you're having this problem, but take a look at the very simple test case here: http://test.learningjquery.com/alt-rows.html

It seems to work fine. Maybe something else is going on in your code or markup? Hard to tell from that snippet.

Hi Karl & Miguel,

Using Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; Intel Mac OS X 10.5; en-US; rv:
1.9.1.5) Gecko/20091102 Firefox/3.5.5,

Viewing the test, I get this error:

Warning: Unknown pseudo-class or pseudo-element 'odd'.
Source File: http://test.learningjquery.com/alt-rows.html
Line: 0

Not sure why this would be happening although I am having similar
problems with :first etc...

Can anyone on a different platform confirm this behavior?

Regards, Lee.

that's strange, Lee. I just tried with FF 3.5.5 Mac (Mozilla/5.0  
(Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X 10.5; en-US; rv:1.9.1.5) Gecko/20091102  
Firefox/3.5.5 ) and had no such errors

I'm seing the same behaviour on FF3.5.5 Windows with the example page
above or with my test page (I'm using :visible selector). I also use
jquery 1.3.2.
I actually get it on the document page on jquery.com:

Warning: Unknown pseudo-class or pseudo-element 'visible'.

I found this thread searching for a solution to this same error. I am
using FF 3.5.5 Win and jQuery 1.3.2 and get:

Warning: Unknown pseudo-class or pseudo-element 'even'.

when using this:

$("#listTable tr:even").addClass("altRow");

cheers

Aha! I see it now. It's a warning, not an error, and it's a CSS warning. If you're seeing it in Firebug, you can hide it by unchecking "Show CSS Errors" in the Console preferences list.

Thank You,

I just asked about this on Twitter and got this reply from Andrew
Tetlaw:

suggesting using tr:nth-child(even) rather than tr:even and this does
indeed work.
