Are there any specific CSS properties that should be avoided when trying to color alternating rows in PHP?

When coloring alternating rows in PHP, it is best to avoid using inline styles or hardcoding colors directly in the HTML. Instead, it is recommended to use CSS classes and apply them dynamically to the rows using PHP. This allows for better separation of concerns and makes the code more maintainable.

<?php
$colors = array('even' => 'lightgrey', 'odd' => 'white');
$row_count = 0;

while ($row = fetch_data()) {
    $row_class = ($row_count % 2 == 0) ? 'even' : 'odd';
    echo '<tr class="' . $row_class . '">';
    // Output table data here
    echo '</tr>';
    $row_count++;
}
?>
