Expression Engine Switch not working as it should
I have been trying to work out the switch tag in the comment entires and for some strange reason its not working for me. I have no idea what am I missing on. Its just not picking up the alternate class. 

Any help will be much appreciated. 

Here's the code for the comment div I have built 

				<div id="comments">
							<h6>Comments</h6>


							{exp:comment:entries weblog="news"}
								<div class="comment-content {switch="odd|even"}">
									<dl>
										<dt><span class="posted-by">{name}</span>
										<span class="comment-date">{comment_date format="%F %d, %Y"}</span>
										</dt>
										<dd>{comment}</dd>
									</dl>
								</div>
							{/exp:comment:entries}




						{exp:comment:form}
							<h6>Leave your comment</h6>
							{if logged_out}
								<label for="name">Name: </label> <br><input type="text" name="name" value="{name}" class="type1" /><br /> 

							{/if}

							<label for="comment">Comment: </label>

							<textarea class="comment_input" cols="30" rows="10" name="comment">{comment}</textarea>


							{if captcha}
								<label for="captcha">Please enter the word you see in the image below:</label><br /> 
								<p>{captcha}<br />
								<input type="text" name="captcha" value="{captcha_word}" maxlength="20"  class="type1" /></p>
							{/if}


							<input class="btn_input" type="submit" value="SUBMIT" name="submit">



						{/exp:comment:form}
					</div>
