  Here's another simple way to let the colors do the work. It can be made into a pretty sick one-liner :)

<?
$color1 = "#ffffff";
$color2 = "#E1DAC1";
?>
<TABLE BORDER=0 CELLSPACING=1 CELLPADDING=1>
<TR>
  <TH>Blah</TH><TH>Blah2</TH>
</TR>
<?
$color = "";
for ($i=0;$i < $num; $i++) {
  $color = ($color == $color1) ? $color2 : $color1;
  echo "<tr bgcolor=\"$color\"><td>yada</td><td>spew</td></tr>
  // more stuff
  }
?>
</table>

Cheers,
  John
