(1)
i've been using this method for years now, maybe somebody else has a
better way to do this?
<?
sql query
$i = 0;
while (sql result fetches) {
if ($i%2 =! 0) { $bg = 'background="white"'; }
else { $bg = ''; }
echo "<tr $bg>";
php codes
$i++;
}
?>
(2) check out the limit syntax in the mysql manuals.
select * from table limit <startindex>, <number of rows>
you should work out on how to use the concept of pages, and how many
rows in a page, in which you had mentioned 20.
count the number of page base on the number of records returned then you
get the total number of pages for particular returned result
i'm thinking of the function ceil, at least i think it's the ceiling
function.
e.g.
if pg = 1
maxrows=20
start = ($pg-1)*$maxrows
select * from table $start, $maxrows
pls feel free to correct me

I have two questions. I would like to display the contents of my table with the first row being grey in background and the next row being white and the third row being grey, fourth being white, etc. I am not sure how to do this. Secondly I only want the first 20 records to be displayed at a time and then I want to create a "NEXT" link for the next 20 records (21-40) ... any idea how you would use the SELECT command to do this?

Visit http://www.mysql.com/ and read a little bit about LIMIT command. :)
