Special Variables
Besides the auction variables, iSale also offers some variables that
are used for customizing the printing style and options.
The following special variables can be used:
✦
BEGINLOOP
indicates the start of a loop
✦
ENDLOOP
indicates the end of a loop
✦
ROWBACKGROUND
sets alternating background colors in table
rows
The part of a print template embedded between BEGINLOOP
and ENDLOOP is repeated for every auction that has been se-
lected for printing.
Note
BEGINLOOP and ENDLOOP are required around the

even if you don’t want to print a list of auctions.
If you want to apply alternating background colors in table rows,
please implement the ROWBACKGROUND variable like this:
