I am porting a new version of my theme, Framework, to Drupal 6, and in my Drupal 5 version, I used the following override to add $zebra classes to li tags for ul.menu.

function phptemplate_menu_item($mid, $children = '', $leaf = true) {
static $count = 0;
$zebra = ($count % 2) ? 'odd' : 'even';
$count++;
return '<li class="' . ($leaf ? 'leaf' : ($children ? 'expanded' : 'collapsed')) .' ' . $zebra . '">'. menu_item_link($mid) . $children ."</li>\n";

However, I can't figure out how to get this working under Drupal 6. Here is the standard function for Drupal 6.

function phptemplate_menu_item($link, $has_children, $menu = '', $in_active_trail = FALSE, $extra_class = NULL) {
  $class = ($menu ? 'expanded' : ($has_children ? 'collapsed' : 'leaf'));
  if (!empty($extra_class)) {
    $class .= ' '. $extra_class;
  }
  if ($in_active_trail) {
    $class .= ' active-trail';
  }
  return '<li class="'. $class .'">'. $link . $menu ."</li>\n";
}

Any help would be much appreciated.

You can do the same thing.

function phptemplate_menu_item($link, $has_children, $menu = '', $in_active_trail = FALSE, $extra_class = NULL) {
  static $zebra = FALSE;
  $zebra = !$zebra;
  $class = ($menu ? 'expanded' : ($has_children ? 'collapsed' : 'leaf'));
  if (!empty($extra_class)) {
    $class .= ' '. $extra_class;
  }
  if ($in_active_trail) {
    $class .= ' active-trail';
  }
  if ($zebra) {
    $class .= ' even';
  }
  else {
    $class .= ' odd';
  }
  return '<li class="'. $class .'">'. $link . $menu ."</li>\n";
}
