[Opensource] "zebra striping" question

[Tsanko Stefanov]

Hello guys,

Adding a counter attribute to 
com.jcorporate.expresso.ext.struts.taglib.logic.ExIterateTag (as in Struts 
<logic:iterate> tag) would be great. Sometimes it is usefull to know the 
collection level one is at.
Is there something available that will allow me to traverse through 
collection objects and to keep a track of the "level"?

Regards
