Hello,

Forgive me for asking. Please refer me to a link that has a working example on how to produce alternating colors. The links I found so far has information that is too complex for me to comprehend. A simple working sample would really help.

<?php
  // I need to know how to make the theme() function produce alternating colors 
  // with respect to the rows. Red and Blue will do :)
  $header= array('rows');
  $rows   = array(1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10)
  print theme('table',$header,$rows)
?>

Thank you for reading

By default it adds alternating "odd" and "even" classes to the table rows. Just use CSS to assign colours to those classes - no PHP needed.

One problem you have though is that you aren't defining $rows properly. $rows is a array of rows and each row is an array of cells.

eg to create the rows array I think you wanted to create: 

<?php
$rows = array();
foreach (range(1,10) as $value) {
  $rows[] = array($value);
}
// ie $rows == array(array(1), array(2), array(3), ... array(10))

?>
