Read your mail to fast:
Change, "$posts_info=0;", into: "$posts_info++;", then you
should get alternate colors.

Subject: [PHP-WIN] output a table
Hi...
I'm trying to output a table with alternate background color rows.
The following snippet outputs a table after connecting to a mySQL
database
with posts but all of the rows have the same bgcolor.
Any help with the syntax will be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.

<th bgcolor=\"#497fbf\"><font color=\"#ffffff\">POST</font></th>
</tr>";
while ($posts_info = mysql_fetch_array($get_posts_res)) {
$post_id = $posts_info['post_id'];
$post_text = nl2br(stripslashes($posts_info['post_text']));
$post_create_time = $posts_info['fmt_post_create_time'];
$post_owner = stripslashes($posts_info['post_owner']);
$color1 = "#CCFFCC";
$color2 = "#BFD8BC";
$posts_info = 0;
$row_color = ($posts_info % 2) ? $color1 : $color2;
//add to display
$display_block .= "
<tr>
<td width=35% valign=top
bgcolor=\"$row_color\"><p>$post_owner<br>[$post_create_time]</td>
<td width=65% valign=top
bgcolor=\"$row_color\"><p>$post_text<br><br>
<a href=\"replytopost.php?post_id=$post_id\"><strong>REPLY TO
POST</strong></a></td>
</tr>";
}
//close up the table
$display_block .= "</table>";
?>
