Very nice. I took the idea from here and found a way to do it within the PHP I was already using.
All I had to do was create an incrementing variable in my pre-existing while loop, and make a function that checks the remainder when it’s divided by two to see if it’s even or odd. If it’s even, it gives the table row the class=’even’, if odd, class=’odd’. (This way, it’s independent of the movie’s id number, and therefore doesn’t screw up when you sort the rows.) Add a little CSS, and voilà.
Yes, I am retarded enough to be impressed by that. Thanks for noticing.
Check it out in action.
