The blank table column comes from a blank MySQL database field...(I was
initially going to blob images from there to show status change). If you
know of a way to eliminate the database field and still show the status
of the values in a web table, please point me in the right direction. I
am one of those people who have to look up everything for JavaScript.
(My main scripting beast was/is ASP...this PHP is a new project for a
company on a Solaris platform!)

I don't see where you put your blank table column.
I am guessing it might be somewhere within this for loop:
for ($i=0; $i $num_tables; $i++) {
echo(centerh3 $arr_tablenames[$i] /h3/center);
echo('table align=center border=1tr');
$result = mysql_db_query($dbname, select * from
$arr_tablenames[$i], $id_link);
for ($ii=0; $ii $arr_num_fields[$i]; $ii++) {
echo(th);
echo $hash_field_names[$i][$ii];
echo(/th);
}
echo(/trtr);
$number_of_rows = @mysql_num_rows($result);
for ($iii = 0; $iii $number_of_rows; $iii++) {
$record = @mysql_fetch_row($result);
for ($ii=0; $ii $arr_num_fields[$i]; $ii++) {
echo(td);
echo $record[$ii];
echo(/td);
}
echo(/tr);
}
echo(/table);
}
If that's the case, all you need to do is, let's pretend $table_value
holds
the table value you need to determine the background color:
echo td;
if ($table_value 5)
{
echo bgcolor = \#99\; // whatever color you want
}
else if ($table_value = 5 $table_value 10)
{
echo bgcolor = \#88\; // another color
}
else// if no value matched
{
echo ; // close td tag
}

Here's the code:
// store table names in an array
$arr_tablenames[] = '';
// store number of fields per table(index 0,1,2..) in an array
$arr_num_fields[] = '';
for ($i=0; $i $num_tables; $i++) {

$arr_num_fields[$i] = mysql_num_fields(mysql_db_query($dbname,

}
// store field names in a multidimensional array:
// [i] == table number, [ii] == field number for that table

for ($ii=0; $ii $arr_num_fields[$i]; $ii++) {
$result = mysql_db_query($dbname, select * from

$hash_field_names[$i][$ii] = mysql_field_name($result, $ii);
}
}
for ($i=0; $i $num_tables; $i++) {

echo('table align=center border=1tr');

echo(th);
echo $hash_field_names[$i][$ii];
echo(/th);
}
echo(/trtr);
$number_of_rows = @mysql_num_rows($result);
for ($iii = 0; $iii $number_of_rows; $iii++) {
$record = @mysql_fetch_row($result);
for ($ii=0; $ii $arr_num_fields[$i]; $ii++) {
echo(td);
echo $record[$ii];
echo(/td);
}
echo(/tr);
}
echo(/table);
}
Is that too much to sort through???

If the table's background color will be set when the page is first
loaded,
you can just use the bgcolor attribute of td tag.
If you want to dynamically change the background color, you'll need to
combine your page with javascript.

Okay.
Disclaimer: I am very much the newbie, so please bear with me.
I have a piece of code that displays an array from a MySQL table. One
field in the table is blank (and is displayed as an empty column of
cells) at the moment. I want to have the blank cells display an
image,
value, or change its background color based on whether the numerical
values in the previous 4 fields meet certain criteria or not. Make
sense? Maybe?
An example of what I want to show:
If table 2 has a value that is less than 5, then the last cell
displayed
changes color to reflect that.
If table 2 has a value that is between 5 and 10, then the last cell
