Neither can we, since you don't give us your table schema, or the database
calls. What is your select statement? What function are you using to
retrieve rows?

No. We have no idea what "not working" means. If you want help, you will
need to explicitly indicate what is not happening the way that you would
expect. And you should include all code for the algorithm (you can leave out
the pg_connect(), as that shouldn't be necessary, and is a security risk).
The snippet below is useless to determine what may be wrong.

A tip: on top of using associative arrays as was mentioned in a previous
response, your use of printf() is superfluous and functions only to make
your code more difficult to read. This isn't C--use print():
print <<<EOS
<tr bgcolor='$bgcolor'>
<td>$myrow[1]</td>
<td>$myrow[2]</td>
<td><a href='mailto:$myrow[19]'>$myrow[3]</a></td>
<td><a href="$myrow[9]">$myrow[19]</a></td>
<td>$myrow[9]</td><td>$myrow[10]</td>
</tr>
EOS;
Much cleaner, no?
