How to mark every 3rd post

by

I’m working on a WordPress site for my band and I’d like to mark every 3rd post on our blog page to have a special class applied to it, anybody have any pointers on how to achieve this? Any help is very very appreciated, thanks! rock n roll.

My approach. No extra function, no filter. 🙂

<?php $GLOBALS['wpdb']->current_post = 0; ?>
<div <?php post_class( 0 === ++$GLOBALS['wpdb']->current_post % 3 ? 'third' : '' ); ?>>

Alternative:

<div <?php post_class( 0 === ++$GLOBALS['wpdb']->wpse_post_counter % 3 ? 'third' : '' ); ?>>
