table script in php.

I have an issue with a calendar script i wrote, the problem occurs when i have 0 blank cells before the start of the month, ie, first day is a sunday. the problem is that it adds a blank row above the first row of days, which creates a very thin line above the days which just doesnt look right. any ideas would be greatly appreciated, here is the section that creates the day names row and the first row of blank cells up to the correct day:

<tr>
		<?
			for ($c=0; $c<7; $c++)
			{
				echo "<td bgcolor = '#CD5C5C'><font face=Arial size=-2>".$dna[$c]."</font></td>\n";
			}
	?>
</tr>
<tr>
	<?
			for ($d = 1; $d <= $fdmv; $d++)
			{
				$rcv++;
				echo "<td><font face = Arial size = -2></font></td>\n";
			}
			while ($dcv <= $mda[$cmv])
			{
				if ($rcv % 7 == 0)
				{
					echo "</tr>\n<tr>\n";
				}

Whenever I have this problem it is because of a blank <tr> row. You may want to do a view source on your page to see what everything looks like when the page is rendered, and that should help you figure out where your blank row is coming in.

but what i dont nkow is how to keep it from being empty, it occurs in the sectino i posted only if the first day of the month = sunday, and no others $fdmv = first day of the month (0-6)

So an if statement to find the day...

$dayOfweek = date("l");

if($dayOfweek == "Sunday") {
do this
} else {
do this
}
