but the counter just fails when run..


$count='0';
$getcharname=$vbulletin->db->query("SELECT some query......
while($row=$vbulletin->db->fetch_array($getcharname)

$count++;
function checkNum($count){
return ($count%2) ? 1 : 0;
}
if(checkNum($count) === 1) {
$color='silver';
} else {
$color='gray';
}
