I have a
table of data that is generated dynamically based on the contents stored in a mysql database.
This is how my code looks:
<table border="1">
<tr>
<th>Name</th>
<th>Description</th>
<th>URL</th>
</tr>
<?php
$query = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM categories");
while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($query)) {
$catName = $row['name'];
$catDes = $row['description'];
$catUrl = $row['url'];
echo "<tr class=''>";
echo "<td>$catName</td>";
echo "<td>$catDes</td>";
echo "<td>$catUrl</td>";
echo "</tr>";
}
?>
</table>
Now if the
table was static, then I would just assign each alternating
table row one of 2 styles in repeated order:
.whiteBackground { background-color: #fff; }
.grayBackground { background-color: #ccc; }
and that would be the end of that. However since the
table rows are dynamically generated, how can I achieve this?
