My numbered list (done with php) gets really messed up if the last number is odd

I am not sure why, but when the query (seen below) shows an odd number of tracks the entire webpage basically gets destroyed! There is alot going on on the webpages look (such as tables, css, etc.) but none of it should be causing any problems because when the query results an odd number of tracks it looks perfect. The best way to describe what happens is that the number (saying the query results 11 posts) 11 is stuck below a bunch of other things on the page. What could be wrong? I hope that makes enough since but I could never post the entire script so here is the relevant part:

 

<?php
$querytrack = "SELECT * FROM data WHERE post='$id' LIMIT 0,19";
$resulttrack = mysql_query($querytrack) or die("Couldn't execute query because: ".mysql_error());
while($rowtrack = mysql_fetch_array($resulttrack)){
   $track  = $rowtrack['track'];
   $fill2  = 1 + $fillc2++;{
if($fill2 & 1) {
?>
   <table width="100%" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td bgcolor="#000000" valign="middle"><span class="style1"><?php echo $fill2; ?>.  <img src="/images/divspace.gif" height="20" /><?php if (strlen($track) > 41) $track = substr("$track", 0, 41) . "..."; print "$track"; ?></span></td></tr>
<?php
}
else {
?>
   <tr><td background="/images/resultsbg.jpg" valign="middle"><span class="style1"><?php echo $fill2; ?>.  <img src="/images/divspace.gif" height="20" /><?php if (strlen($track) > 41) $track = substr("$track", 0, 41) . "..."; print "$track"; ?></span></td></tr></table>
<?php
}
}
}
?>

why are you using bit operators? if you want to have another background color for every row i suggest you use something like

 

$row_iterator = 1;

while($rowtrack = mysql_fetch_array($resulttrack)){

echo "<tr" . (($row_iterator % 2) ? '' : ' class="odd"') . ">";

// before the end of the loop, you put

$row_iterator++;

}
