sometimes you don't want to know whether odd or even to do what you're asking for, therefore, consider the XOR example: $colors = array("red", "green"); $start = 0; while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($result)) { echo "<td bgcolor='{$colors[$start]}'>{$row[firstnamename]}</td>"; $start ^= 1; // 1 xor 1 = 0, 0 xor 1 = 1, etc.... } etc.....
