My database data is echoed in a table list but I will like for the list to be ordered for reference purposes. I have tried several approaches but it doesn't seem to work. Any way possible? here is my code
<table width="auto" border="0" align="center" cellpadding="2" cellspacing="1" class="text">
<tr align="center" id="listTableHeader">
<td>S/N</td>
<td>First Name</td>
<td>Last Name</td>
</tr>
<?php
while($row = dbFetchAssoc($result)) {
extract($row);
if ($i%2) {
$class = 'row1';
} else {
$class = 'row2';
}
$i += 1;
?>
<tr class="<?php echo $class; ?>">
<td width="70" align="center">Delete</td>
<td></td>
<td><?php echo $Firstame; ?></td>
<td><?php echo $LastName; ?></td>
</tr>
<?php
} // end while
?>
<tr>
<td colspan="5"> </td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td colspan="5" align="right"></td>
</tr>
</table>
