Instead of table

[php_guest]

Please tell how to create the following list without table.

echo "<table>";
            while ($row=mysql_fetch_assoc($result2))
            {
                extract($row);
                echo "<tr><td>1. </td><td><a href='/user.php?ID=$ID'>$firstName $lastName</a></td><td> $City<td> $Business</td> </td></tr><br />";
            }
            echo "</table>";

1) Create a gradient in photoshop. Take a vertical slice of it, about 5 pixels wide. (some people take 1px slices, which cuts down on download times, but increases the load on the computer). Set this image as the background image to the body tag, and add repeat-x. Then, set the background color of the body to the lower color of the gradient, so that the image blends smoothly into the color of the background.

2+3) Too much to explain in one post, and there are various methods of doing it. Start here: http://www.cssjuice.com/25-rounded-corners-techniques-with-css/

tnx. Just one more question. How do you set height of the box to match the content inside it. So if there is more results of row, the box is higher.

The box has no special features really...so the content in the middle should expand it automatically - unless you set the height of the box with css.

Exactly. Don't set a height, and the height will expand as necessary.
