How to display any array in several rows and columns of a table. Not just

On each and every corner you find snippets on how to display every second row e.g. in a 
different color. But what, if you want to display a table with 6 rows and 6 colums in different 
colors? Here's the solution: 

<? 
$colors=ARRAY( 
"#000000","#000033","#000066","#000099","#0000CC","#0000FF","#003300", 
"#003333","#003366","#003399","#0033CC","#0033FF","#006600","#006633", 
"#006666","#006699","#0066CC","#0066FF","#009900","#009933","#009966", 
"#009999","#0099CC","#0099FF","#00CC00","#00CC33","#00CC66","#00CC99", 
"#00CCCC","#00CCFF","#00FF00","#00FF33","#00FF66","#00FF99","#00FFCC", 
"#00FFFF"); 
?> 

<table border="0" cellspacing="1" cellpadding="0"> 
   <tr> 
   <? 
   for($i=0; $i< count($colors); $i++) { 
          echo '<td> 
            <table name="'.$colors[$i].'" width=10 height=10 border="0" bgcolor="'.$colors[$i].'"> 
    <tr> 
                    <td><img src="_blank.gif" width="1" height="1" border="0" alt=""></td> 
    </tr> 
            </table> 
          </td>'; 

          if ( (($i+1) % 6) == 0 ) echo $newrow="</tr><tr>";  // change 6 to 8 and see 
         } 

?>         
   </tr> 
</table> 


If you replace the array of colors with any database generated value, you can generate a 
table of images like an album nicely without manually fiddling with the code.
