Hi,
I am a newbie to php. Here I am trying to print the table rows with different colors based on a value of a field. But it is displaying the very first record in different color and next is the other color until the date field changes.

suppose:

id dt
xyz 05 (this is in #a99999 color)
abc 05 (this is in #ffffff color)
123 05 (this is in #ffffff color)
324 06 (this is in #a99999 color)
ccc 06 (this is in #ffffff color)


but i need first three (with 05 date) in same color and next records in other color alternatively.

the following is my code:


if($tmp!=$dt){$color="#a99999"; $tmp=$dt;}else{$color="#ffffff";}

while($row = mysql_fetch_array( $result )) {
$id=$row[1];

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

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

$slno++;
$tmp=$dt;

if($tmp!=$dt){$color="#a99999"; $tmp=$dt;}else{$color="#ffffff";}

echo "<tr bgcolor='$color'><td align='right'>";
echo $slno;
echo "</td><td><b>";
echo $row[0];
echo "</td><td align='center'>";
?>
<a href="profile.php?id=<?php echo $idnum; ?>"><?php echo $idnum;?>
</a>
<?PHP
echo "</td><td>";
echo sprintf("%07d",$row[2]);
echo "</td><td align='center'>";
echo $row[3];
echo "</td><td align='center'><b>";
echo $row[4];
echo "</td><td align='center'>";
echo $row[5];
echo "</td><tr>";
}
echo "</table>";

thank you.

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";
}

Why this? You want to check, if the new date differs. So why do you
assign $dt to $tmp, before you compare it here (and assign the different
value to $tmp then again)?

Here in my data the date differs in a month. So I want to display same month records in one color. Maximum i will have three different months records. Thats the reason i am checking $dt (month tag from the date) is same from the previous date.


the code :

if($tmp!=$dt){
$color="#a99999";
$tmp=$dt;

}else{
$color="#ffffff";
}

is not working.

So I want to display same month records in one color.

Thats the reason i am checking $dt (month tag from the date) is

AS pointed out in 2 earlier messages, as you assign $dt to $tmp
before the compare, they will never differ. I suspect you want
to remove the first assignment (above the compare).
