echoing values from database with gradient color.

[seany123]

i was wondering if its possible to echo values from my database such as $player->username as a gradient color.

Do you mean dependent on some other user value like score or all the same but with a gradient?

 

Can you give a bit more detail on what you're trying to achieve?

[seany123]

I would like it so members can change their name color.. so it displays gradient color

[JasonLewis]

So that each letter is a different color or just so the name is a different color?

that is more CSS than PHP. I dont think you could make words have a gradient with PHP, but I'm sure there is a way to gradient text with CSS.

 

try googling css gradient text tutorial. there are tons

 

hope that helps!

U shud be able to do it in php.

Question is how is the gradiant supposed to appear.

 

u can use some inline .css to make user selectable gradiants which would be good for a background.

or if ya want to be a real pain and do individual characters from a string (font text gradiant).
