Row stripe with TableKit

How to set the row striping color or shade in TableKit library?
i.e. set the color or shade of the even (2, 4, 6, …) rows to make
the row striping more visible.

How to sort two columns of a table with one column as primary and the
second column as secondary with the TableKit library?
e.g. The two columns are
Date Time
24/10/2005 10:49:41 AM
24/10/2005 10:49:42 AM
24/10/2005 9:50:42 PM
25/10/2005 2:03:04 AM
25/10/2005 1:53:04 PM

I want to enable row striping with the latest TableKit.
I tried the following but still had no row striping.
I add the “stripe” keyword.
<table id=“mytable” class=“sortable resizable editable
stripe”>
<thead>
<tr><th class=“sortfirstdesc” id=“creation-date”>Date</
th><th id=“time”>Time</th><th id=“title”>Title</th><th
id=“status”>Status</th><th id=“author”>Requested By</th><th
id=“cost”>Cost</th><th id=“size”>Size</th></tr>
</thead>
<tbody>
<tr id=“N938712239”><td>24/10/2005 10:49:41 AM</
td><td>10:49:41 AM</td><td>Keyboard is Broken</td><td>In Progress</
td><td>Tom</td><td>$200.00</td><td>30 KB</td></tr>
<tr id=“N938744539”><td>24/10/2005 10:49:41 PM</
td><td>10:49:41 PM</td><td>Windows is crashing</td><td>New</
td><td>Bill</td><td>$300.00</td><td>30MB</td></tr>
</tbody>

Then I tried the following but still had no row striping.
<script type=“text/javascript”>
TableKit.options.autoLoad = false;
TableKit.options.stripe = true;
TableKit.Rows.stripe(mytable);
</script>

I had also tried to no avail:
TableKit.Rows.stripe(‘mytable’);
TableKit.Rows.stripe(“mytable”);
