Table colours fail when extra row added

Posted on 16th Feb 2014 07:03 pm by admin

Hey Gurus,

I got a weird problem with formating the colour of a table made in php. Everything works fine when i use 5 rows each row has an alturnative colour, but when i add the 6th row the colour fails and every row is the same colour which is the first colour (green). I used the same technique on every row so i dont understand how it fails with an extra row. Heres the code:

Line number On/Off | Expand/Contract $result = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM fulldata WHERE approved = '0'") or die(mysql_error() ); $i=1; $row = mysql_fetch_array($result); $line = mysql_fetch_assoc($result); // headers of the tableecho "<table width='100%' border='0' cellpadding='0' cellspacing='0'>"; echo "<tr><td align='left' width='40%'><b>Description</b></th><td align='center' width='30%'><b>Proof</b></th><td align='center' width='10%'><b>Workers Needed</b></th><td align='center' width='10%'><b>Price</b></th><td align='center' width='10%'><b>Accept</b></th><td align='center' width='10%'><b>Deney</b></th></tr>";// ITERATE OVER THE RESULTS SET while ($line = mysql_fetch_assoc($result)) {// GET EASY-TO-READ LOCAL VARIABLES foreach ($line as $key => $val) { $$key = htmlentities($val); }// CREATE THE ROW OF DATA $color = ($i % 2) ? "#3F6" : "#3CF"; echo "<tr>"; echo "<td style='background-color:$color' align='center'>$descript</td>n"; $i++; echo "<td style='background-color:$color' align='center'>$proof</td>n"; $i++; echo "<td style='background-color:$color' align='center'>$amountworkers</td>n"; $i++; echo "<td style='background-color:$color' align='center'>$perperson</td>n"; $i++; echo "<td style='background-color:$color' align='center'>Accept</td>n"; $i++; echo "<td style='background-color:$color' align='center'>Deney</td>n"; $i++; } // END WHILE ITERATOR echo "</table>n"; // END IF/ELSE ?>

that last row Quote: echo "<td style='background-color:$color' align='center'>Deney</td>n";
$i++; when added ruins all the colours. when taken out the table works fine
