In Bootstrap 5.3, is it possible to change the background color to white for the last two rows of a striped table?

I'm using Bootstrap to display a striped table with the table-striped class. However, I want the last two rows to have a white background despite the row number being odd or even.

I tried these approaches, but they didn't work:

  1. Add bg-white class to the two rows
  2. Create a new class in a separate CSS stylesheet such as:
.white-row tr {
    background color: white;
}
  1. Use an id selector:
#white-row {
    background color: white;  
}
  1. Add !important inside the new class

Here is my code:

                            </tr>

This is the desired look for the table: desired look

Solution

  • The reason why it is not working is, that Bootstrap does not use background-color to create the effect but a box-shadow.
    You simply have to remove the box-shadow or make it transparent:

    tbody tr:nth-last-child(-n+2) {
  td, th {
  box-shadow: none;
}
