easy alternate table rows

';
    print ';
    print ';
    print ';
    print '';
}

As you can see it was pretty simple, and as you can imagine very plain. I needed to number the list.

$i = 0;
foreach($foo as $a => $b)
{
$i++;
print '

';
    print ';
    print ';
    print ';
    print ';
    print '';
}That took care of the numbered rows. I thought that it would be easier to use if every other row was a diff. color. I first tried to use modulus to get the remainder of $i when divided by 2. If there was a remainder, then that row was odd. That was my thinking - but it didn't work. I found this solution (that was easy) on php.net.

$i = 0;
$alt = true;
foreach($foo as $a => $b)
{
    $i++;
    print ''.($alt?' bgcolor="#CCCCCC"':'').'>';
    print '

;
    print ';
    print ';
    print ';
    print '';
    $alt =! $alt;
}

Works like a charm :D

	easy alternate table rows Date: 04/11/07 (PHP Community) Keywords: php, database I had a big long report that I printed to the screen. It was a foreach loop that went through an associative array of database results and put them in a table. It looked crappy at first. This is what I had at the beginning: foreach($foo as $a => $b) { print '
'.$b['stuff'].'	'.$b['stuff'].'	'.$b['stuff'].'
'.$i.'	'.$b['stuff'].'	'.$b['stuff'].'	'.$b['stuff'].'
'.$i.'	'.$b['stuff'].'	'.$b['stuff'].'	'.$b['stuff'].'
