Do you have a dynamic number of rows that uses an iteration?
If so, run a test if the index (or the count) of the iteration is even or odd.
If even, make it the first color.
If odd, make it the second color.

You can also implement this functionality using struts-layout tags from the struts-layout home

Danilo loves those layout tags so much he wrote an entire chapter on them! In Struts Recipes we have a recipe on how to extend the Iterate tag to allow you to alternate any number of colors.

You can find out how to do it by downloading the sample chapter from
http://www.manning-source.com/books/franciscus/franciscus_chp2.pdf

It recipe 2.8 on p 80. Remember, Struts tags are meant to be extended. You can extend any tag in the library to do whatever you need them to do. This recipes shows you how to do that step-by-step.

I have some columns in table (I iterate for these columns) which must be in another color. How to go about this?
example: out of 5 columns i have 2 columns with different color

Did you read the the sample of chapter two of the book Struts Recipes that the author of that book mentioned above? As he said, recipe 2.8 on p80 of the book (which is p42 of the pdf) gives you about as good an explanation as you're likely to find. I suggest taking the author's advice and having a look at this.
