A driving method for a plasma display panel (PDP). The odd pixels units are selected by the odd fields, and are discharged. The even pixels units are selected by the even fields, and are discharged. The pixel units are disposed in a triangular arrangement, so that the odd pixel units and adjacent even pixel units, being different in color, are arranged alternately. Thereby, the present invention can eliminate flicker. In addition, the different pixel units are controlled by different common electrodes and the present invention thereby reduces cross-talk.
