Remove WP-Syntax Alternative Line Background Color

Recently, when I upgrade wp-syntax plugin, it shows code in alternative background color for each line. This is so annoying and makes the code not readable. It looks like the following:

wp-syntax-alternative-line-background

The solution is simple. Go to Edit the plugin, and select the wp-syntax/css/wp-syntax.css to edit. First comment out the following code by using “/* */”.

 
.wp_syntax td.code{
	background-color: #EEE;
	background-image: -webkit-linear-gradient( transparent 50%, rgba(255, 255, 255, .9) 50% );
	background-image: -moz-linear-gradient( transparent 50%, rgba(255, 255, 255, .9) 50% );
	background-image: -ms-linear-gradient( transparent 50%, rgba(255, 255, 255, .9) 50% );
	background-image: -o-linear-gradient( transparent 50%, rgba(255, 255, 255, .9) 50% );
	background-image: linear-gradient( transparent 50%, rgba(255, 255, 255, .9) 50% );
	background-size : 1px 32px;
	line-height     : normal !important;
	white-space     : normal !important;
	width           : 100% !important;
}

Then add the following css:

.wp_syntax td.code { background-image:none; background-color:none; }

After removing the alternative background color, the code looks like the following:

wp-syntax-single-background-color
