[FX.php List] Newbie Needs Help

[Michael Layne]

alternate colors...

     $counter = 1;
     foreach ($r['data'] as $l) {
         if ($counter % 2 == 0) {
         echo "<tr class=\"even\">\n"; // CSS rule makes background- 
color (transparent/#ffffff)
         } else {
         echo "<tr class=\"odd\">\n";  // begin row 2 CSS rule makes  
background-color (#f3f3f3/whatever)
         }
         <td>...data...</td>
         <td>...data...</td>
         </tr>
         ++$counter;        // The '++' operator increments the  
argument it accompanies.
     }

I usually just grab the 'returnedCount'

query...
     $q = new FX($ip, $port);
     $q->SetDBData($fmdb,$lay);
     $q->AddDBParam('sessionID',session_id());
     $r = $q->FMFind();

text...
if ($r['foundCount'] <= 0) {
     echo "<p>Sorry, no records found....</p>\n";
}

HTH,

Michael
