Take this part of your code:

  while (!$directory->EOF) {
?>
    <table width="100%" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0">
    <!--DWLayoutTable-->
    <tr> 

And replace it with something like:

  $a = 0;
  while (!$directory->EOF) {

$bgcolor = ($a++ & 1) ? '#ffffff' : '#eeeeee'; 
?>
    <table width="100%" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0">
    <!--DWLayoutTable-->
    <tr bgcolor="<?php echo $bgcolor ?>">
