But it is displaying the very first record in different
color and next is the other color until the date field changes.

modestly confused: if I read what you wrote it seems you want
the 05 records to be #a99999 and
all other records to alternate between #fff and some other (as
yet unspecified) color ?

however:
$dt=substr($row[5],5,2);

// Print out the contents of each row into a table

$slno++;
$tmp=$dt; <<< this insures that $tmp will always = $dt

if($tmp!=$dt) { <<< so this will never be true
$color="#a99999";
$tmp=$dt;
}
else { <<< BTW, the brackets are not needed if it is a
single statement, but they are not wrong either
$color="#ffffff";
}
