supergrame Posted March 17, 2009 Share Posted March 17, 2009 Hey, how would you define text colour within the open and close php tags? $var = "<font colour text="red">text</font>"; does that look right to you guys?

trq Posted March 17, 2009 Share Posted March 17, 2009 Font tags should no longer be used in favour of css but anyways, to demonstrate the proper php syntax it would be.... $var = "<font colour text=\"red\">text</font>"; or $var = '<font colour text="red">text</font>'; or $var = '<font colour text=\'red\'>text</font>'; or $var = "<font colour text='red'>text</font>"; Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/149750-define-text-colour-within-php-help/#findComment-786355 Share on other sites More sharing options...
supergrame Posted March 17, 2009 Author Share Posted March 17, 2009 thank you, if i did my hole page with css i would have a css file bigger than my site lol. i have uses some css only for like divs and some text area fields and body, but that's what i don't get with css is it meant to be a really long page of code or am i doing something wrong. sorry of massive topic change Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/149750-define-text-colour-within-php-help/#findComment-786368 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lodius2000 Posted March 17, 2009 Share Posted March 17, 2009 yes, reeeeaaaaallly long, it should be an index of every styling choice on your webpage, so you can easily reference the different classes and ids, which in the end helps simplify your code... you think your css file would be long, you should see some of the commonly used framework php class definitions Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/149750-define-text-colour-within-php-help/#findComment-786379 Share on other sites More sharing options...
