Hi monks,
I would like to share the wisdom I gained.We come across situations when we need to generate a HTML table and stuff some data into it.If the table contains large number of rows we would use bi-(or)multi-color to make it easier to read and for some visual appeal.
We can do it in a line of code
@colors=("blue","green");
foreach $row(@rows)
{
print "<TR BGCOLOR=".$colors[push(@colors,shift(@colors))-
+@colors].">".$row."</TR>";
}
This keeps on swapping the colors for each row and code too will look neat and simple.Any more simplification welcomed!!
Be inspired by Perl REGEX when you choose your spouse!!

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

Want more info? How to link
or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
