Description

binding should be aware of at least pageAtached and pageDetached events
to initialize, or clear contents.

I've made a binding prefix for zebra effect

<t:grid source="vessels" rowsPerPage="15" t:id="results" rowClass="cycle:line1,line2">
</t:grid>

the problem was that for every reload the first line would alternate. This is because binding is
attached to a page instance and is not aware of page's lifecycle.

I've made a workarround by having a static WeakHashmap tracking pages with this binding,
and by adding:

${cycle:reset}

at the begining of each page that uses this binding.

some other bindings may also need to clean resources...
