So I've discovered Smarty templates and started to play with the functionality. Ran into the example that uses CSS to color alternating line item rows but CAN NOT get the rows to alternate colors with the CSS.

BTW: I am pointing to the correct stylesheet.css since the color of the title does change when I exit the css file. I read the previous posts and this is a common cause of failure...

I have included the code below. Seems that color1 & color 2 never get the values from the style sheet.

Help... Thanks,


alternating.php
Code:

<?
//
// example using Smarty templates
//

error_reporting(E_ALL);
ini_set('display_errors','on');

require '../libs/Smarty.class.php';

// create object
$smarty = new Smarty;
$smarty->caching = false;      // never cache

// assign an associative array of data
$smarty->assign('users', array(
   array('name' => 'bob', 'phone' => '555-3425', 'email' => 'bob@jones.com', 'active' => 'True'),
   array('name' => 'jim', 'phone' => '555-4364', 'email' => 'jim@bob.com', 'active' => 'False'),
   array('name' => 'joe', 'phone' => '555-3422', 'email' => 'joe@baker.com', 'active' => 'True'),
   array('name' => 'jerry', 'phone' => '555-4973', 'email' => 'jerry@lewis.com', 'active' => 'True'),
   array('name' => 'fred', 'phone' => '555-3235', 'email' => 'fred@flintstone.com', 'active' => 'False')
   ));


// display it
$smarty->display('alternating.tpl');

?>


alternating.tpl
Code:

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN">
<html>
<head>
<title>
{$title|default:'Alternating'}
</title>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="../css/stylesheet.css" title="StyleSheet" media="all" />
</head>

<body>

Alternate colored rows

<table border="1" >
{section name=mysec loop=$users}
{strip}
   <tr bgcolor="{cycle values="color1,color2"}">
      <td>{$users[mysec].name}</td>
      <td>{$users[mysec].phone}</td>
      <td>{$users[mysec].email}</td>
      <td>{$users[mysec].active}</td>
   </tr>
{/strip}
{/section}
</table>

</body>

</html>


stylesheet.css
Code:

color1 { color:#AAAAAA }
color2 { color:#FFFFFF }
body {
   font-family: arial, helvetica, serif;
   color:#000099
}

At first glance, I think this the problem. I don't think you can use a css class in a bgcolor parameter. The resulting HTML should be:

<tr bgcolor="#aabbcc"> (no css used)

Or, use a stylesheet:

<tr class="myclass">

Then define the myclass colors/styles in the css.

CSS experts, please chime in Wink

Fixed... with mohrt's suggestion and a bit more researching and playing my little example is now working...

Hope this helps someone else in the same pickle as I was...

This is what the tpl & css file look like now. Same .php file

Thanks,

alternating.tpl
Code:

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN">
<html>
<head>
<title>
{$title|default:'Alternating'}
</title>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="../css/stylesheet.css" title="StyleSheet" media="all" />
<link href="../../css/stylesheet.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css">
</head>

<body>
<h1>Alternate colored rows</h1>

<table border="1" >
{section name=mysec loop=$users}
{strip}
   <tr class="{cycle values="color1,color2"}">
      <td>{$users[mysec].name}</td>
      <td>{$users[mysec].phone}</td>
      <td>{$users[mysec].email}</td>
      <td>{$users[mysec].active}</td>
   </tr>
{/strip}
{/section}
</table>

</body>

</html>



stylesheet.css
Code:

tr.color1 {
background-color:#999999; /* grey */
}

tr.color2 {
background-color:#FFFFFF; /* white */
}

h1 {
   font-family: arial, helvetica, serif;
   color:#000099
}
