Record Lines Without Tables

I regularly code in standard asp with MySQL. I have a page which displays records with the background colour of each record table row in a different colour. There are 2 table rows per record. The problem is that at the end of each field in a row, the background
colour stops and then continues in the next field, i.e. the rows look like a brick wall design.

Is there anyway I can adjust my designs so that no matter how many fields or rows I have, the background colour is seamless and the visitor cannot see the start and end sections of each field ?
