here's one way, set a variable and switch it on and off
$tr_properties = 'style="background-color: grey;"';
while( $ect = etc ) {
if($tr_properties){
print "<tr $tr_properties>";
$tr_properties = false;
} else {
print "<tr>";
$tr_properties = 'style="background-color: grey;"';
}
}
you sould refine the code and simplify it but that is basic principle.
