Selector not working as expected

Description

I am using the following selector:


<script type="text/javascript">

$(document).ready(function() { $("p:odd").addClass("Class2"); $("p:even").addClass("Class1"); });

</script>

The CSS class used are:


.Class1 {

background-color:Red; color:Yellow;

}

.Class2 {

background-color: Green; color: White;

}

The HTML on which I am trying to run the above jQuery code is(the code is shortened for brevity):


<html> <body>

<form id="form1" runat="server"> <div> <p> This is an Odd paragraph</p> <br /> <p> This is an Even paragraph</p> <br /> <p> This is an Odd paragraph</p> <br /> <p> This is an Even paragraph</p> <br /> <p> This is an Odd paragraph</p> <br /> </div> </form>

</body> </html>

The above code should use the CSS class named "Class1" for all the "Even" paragraphs and "Class2" for all "Odd" paragraphs, whereas in my case it is showing an exactly opposite behavior. It is showing all "Even" paragaphs by using CSS class named "Class1" and for all "Odd" paragraphs the styling is used from "Class2".

Please advice.

Note that :odd and :even number from 0, not 1.

The :nth-child selector numbers from 1.
