Question

i have this designing my table:

<style type="text/css">
        tr {
            background: <?php echo $colors[$status];?>;
            color:white;
        }
</style>

and

    $status = $row[4];//value is 0
    $colors = array("lime", "red");

The value in the database is 0.

The $status variable defines what color the table row should be. However the row is never lime. Is my array wrong or something else?

Answer 1

make sure the order is correct.

the order should be something like this:

<?php
    $status = $row[4];//value is 0
    $colors = array("lime", "red");
?>
<style type="text/css">
    tr {
        background: <?php echo $colors[$status];?>;
        color:white;
    }
</style>

your issue could be due to the fact that $colors was never declared before you started using it
