I've been looking and searching for an answer to my simple php question. But I haven't been able to find anything untill now. What I have it, a list of items selected from a database. Now, I want each line to have a different background color, so it's easy to see which items are linked to others, if you know what I mean. Little example:

$status=mysql_result($result,$i,"status");

The above code fetches/selects the data from the database. The code below displays it on a webpage:

<td valign=\"top\" width=\"10%\">$status</td>

Now, if for example I have 3 items stored in the database:

Item 1
Item 2
Item 3
item 4

I want item 1 and item 3 to have a white background color, and item 2 and 4 a black background color. Would I be able to do this and if so, could you help me on my way?

Many thanks in advance!
