Hi
This depends a little on how you have created the output, but in general, when you define the table:
<table>
You can directly add your first row:
<tr><td class="header"></td></tr>
and then output the information from the database. You have noticed the class identifier I added? Use CSS (Cascading stylesheets) to crteate the right color/font for rthe header. Then, if you layter decide you want to change the page, only in your stylesheet you need to make changes, which saves you a lot of work. Look at the w3c website (www.w3c.org ??) for the specifications and use of CSS
There is a few good threads on alternating colors. Please doa search on the forum.
This is what I use:
$class = array(one, two); //set classes
$i = '0';
while ( $row =@ mysql_fetch_array($platformq))
{
$j = $i%2;
$output .= "<tr><td id=\"$class[$j]\"></td></tr>";
$i++;
}
This will create a clas="one" for one row, then a class="two for the other etcetc. In your stylesheet you then identify the way you want class=one and class=two to look.
