alternating row colors
I want to alternate the color of the rows in a table that I am pulling off a database. I tried taking the variable
Code:
$i
from the for loop
Code:
($i = 0....)
and then doing
Code:
$i % 2 = $result
. If
Code:
$result
is 0 I want one color or if !$result = 0;

Any thoughts would help

  3.   $num = mysql_num_rows($res);
  4.  
  5.     if(($quot = $i % 2) == 0)
  6.     {
  7.         echo "<td height="20" width="20%" valign="top" bgcolor="#0066CC">You text here</font>";
  8. }else{
  9. echo "<td height="20" width="20%" valign="top" bgcolor="#9966CC">You text here</font>";

RE: alternating row colors
Place this in your loop:

$bgcolor = ($bgcolor == "black" ? "white" : "black");

echo ('<td height="20" width="20%" valign="top" bgcolor="'.$bgcolor.'">You text here</font>';

RE: alternating row colors
very sweet code!!! I thought I had an efficient method with this:

php Code:
Original - php Code 
  1.  
  2. $count ++;
  3. $bgcolor = (($count % 2) == 0 ? "#eeeeee" : "#cccccc");

but yours is better,

RE: alternating row colors
would this work?
php Code:
Original - php Code 
  1.  
  2. $bgcolor = (($count++ % 2) == 0 ? "#eeeeee" : "#cccccc");

I think I'll check,

I'm not sure I know how your code works siteworkspro.com. I don't think that I understand how the variables would switch.

RE: alternating row colors
I can break it up for you:

$bgcolor = ($bgcolor == "color1" ? "color2" : "color1");

[var to contain value] = ([condition] ? [return this if condition is true] : [return this if condition is false]);

RE: alternating row colors
It was the while loop that through me because of the word condition. I started thinking that this was the condition being checked to flip the colors. I use the ternary operator (? for this myself, I just use the modulo (%) as my condition but I like yours better gipz.
