I forgot the other part

<%= counter.intValue() %>

So you can do this in JSP

<table  ... >
<logic:iterate .... indexId="counter" >

    <tr bgcolor="<%= counter.intValue() ? "#C0C0C0" : "E0FFE0" >
      <td>
	 ...
      </td>
    </tr>

</logic:iterate>
</table>

This should give the financial market spreadsheet style alternating row
