RE: [PHP] Alternate row color

** Reply to note from Michael Richardson <mrichardson@agex.com> Tue, 8 Aug 2000 20:12:05 -0700 > I like this one... $Colors = array( '#ffffff', '#000000' [, 'more-colors' ] ); $I = 0; while( conditions ) { print "<tr color=" . $Colors[ $I ++ % count( $Colors ) ] . ">"; } You get to have any number of colors in the sequence. You can possibly speed things up a little by replacing the count( $Colors ) with the actual number of colors in the array, of you don't mind not having it automatically adjust to changes in the array length. > > while (conditions) { > > if ($color == "#ffffff") $color = "#000000; > else $color = "#ffffff"; > > print "<tr color=$color></td>\n"; > > } > > -----Original Message----- From: Tyler Longren > [mailto:tyler.longren@midiowa.net] Sent: Tuesday, August 08, 2000 8:07 > PM To: PHP-General Subject: [PHP] Alternate row color > > > Hello, > > How could I alternate table row colors by using a for or while loop? > It can't be that hard.
