Hello everyone,

 

I am having some issues with text that gets echo'd in a PHP script.

The HTML text on the page listens to the .css and displays as it should only whatever gets echo'd by the PHP part is living a life of it's own.

It all displays perfect on any PC or Mac (any browser works) but on the iPhone it completely messes up.

 

If i size everything down to 7px with the <span> command it looks decent on the iPhone but ofcourse microscopic on the computer...

 

Unfortunately i am un able to give a sample of the script as i am working under a non disclosure agreement but i am hoping for some tips,

pointers and/or maybe even solutions from people that have experience when it comes to this.

 

Thanks so much !

 

Jay

That's the thing, i can't share any part of the page  :(

Is there a list somewhere of stuff i can try that applies to text ?

Or maybe someone here that has experience with building a site that's iPhone compatible.

 

I know not sharing any code makes thing a lot harder, sorry.

;D i agree, nothing top secret. But like i said i had to sign the NDA and i'm not risking anything.

Could you tell me what part of the HTML you need ?

PS. I validated the document (dreamweaver did it for me) and shows no issues.

This really has nothing to do with PHP, it is a HTML problem, and no he can't tell you where to look in the HTML without seeing the page source, BTW even if you have a non-disclosure agreement, it shouldn't matter if you show us source code as it is visible when the site is live anyway.

Ok, here's the HTML of the page, and some PHP stuff in between :)

 

All the PHP does is echo the result of an "if ... = ... echo "echo'd text here"

The (yes indeed) rather rude remarks don't really help me.

I was told this was thé place to come to for help. So here i am.

The HTML gave no errors on validation, if it did i would have fixed it.

 

The problem on the iPhone is that all the text that the PHP echo shows/generates is way bigger than font size 12.

While the rest of the page text behaves as the news.css tells it to.

 

Appreciate the help.

   echo "<span style=\"font-family: arial; font-size: 11px;\">";
   echo "<b>Number of Cores:</b> ";   
      if ($model == ABC) echo "       - 2";
   echo "</span>";
   echo "<br />";
   ?>

 </span><br /><span style="font-family: arial; font-size: 11px;"><b>Bus Speed:</b> </span><br />    </pre>
    </td>
  </tr>
</table>

 

This results in an echo that looks as follows:

 

On computer:

Number of cores:    -2

 

On iPhone

Number of cores              -2

Btw why are you calling the same span tag inside a span tag

 

<span style="font-family: arial; font-size: 11px;"><b>Number of Cores:</b>

 

<?php

  echo "<span style=\"font-family: arial; font-size: 11px;\">";

  echo "<b>Number of Cores:</b> "; 

      if ($model == ABC) echo "      - 2";

  echo "</span>";

  echo "<br />";

  ?>

 

</span>

before using the span tag the fonts were even bigger, the way it is now i managed to keep it somewhat under control. I'm sure this is not the way to go but this is far as i've come with google :/

 

Here's a snap of what it looks like on the iPhone (or iPod Touch in this case):

 

Edit: Just deleted the double span tags and the output is the same.

Going to try the validator now.

EDIT:  Blerh, typed this before your most recent part, so ignore the double span part.

 

 

 

The (yes indeed) rather rude remarks don't really help me.

 

 

My first comment was pretty blunt, but I have issues with someone coming to such an open forum when he/she refuses to  give the full details of his/her problem.  "My bike is broken, and I want you to fix it."  "Oh, ok, can I see your bike?"  "No!"  "Oh, I can't?  How can I fix it?"  "Well, you may see the pedals.  That's it."  That's not really how I see the spirit of these forums.  Maybe that's just me.  Sorry, I guess.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Does the Processor Speed thing show up correctly?  It's basically the same HTML, so I would expect it not to do so.

 

 

Also, if it's not the double span tag, which I suspect it may be, since your CSS could be styling spans, could we see some of the relevant parts of your style sheet?

Wowie.... validator.w3.org gives me

Result: 26 Errors, 26 warning(s)

 

Guess i can't take dreamweavers word for it being "validated and OK" :S

 

Either way here is the contents of the css file:

 

@charset "UTF-8";
.news {
font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
font-size: 12px;
font-style: normal;
font-weight: normal;
color: #000000;
}

 

I will review and look into all the errors that website gave me.

Thanks so far for your help guys, i really appreciate it.

 

Corbin i understand your reaction, i was just being careful because of the NDA :)

Now, no offence, but if you are designing and most likely even coding the site ( except maybe the PHP) in dreamweaver, i don't see why you have a NDA as it is not exactly a very proffesional way of creating a site. I mean this as in using tables instead of pure css (div,span, etc.) and using dreamweaver to code alot of it.

 

When you have fixed the errors, repost the code if there is still a problem.
