PHP HTML Formatting

[korki696]

Hey all,

I am working on a site right now but I have a problem that I just cant figure out. What i am trying to do is have two echoes that are next to eachother but with different HTML formating.

 

<div class="additional_info ie6fix" id='twitterbox'>
<?php echo $feed[0]; ?>
<h2><?php echo $feed[1]; ?></h2>
<h4><?php echo $feed[2]; ?></h4>
</div>

 

So in that example lets say $feed[1] = "Hello " and $feed[2] = "Mom". I want the output to be Hello Mom. The output i currently get is:

Hello

Mom

with the different formatting. How can i get the two outputs on the same line?

 

Thanks

heading tags automatically go to the next line. if you want to be next to each other you will have to set their float style, or some other display style try

<div class="additional_info ie6fix" id='twitterbox'>
<?php echo $feed[0]; ?>
<h2 style="float:left"><?php echo $feed[1]; ?></h2>
<h4 style="float:left"><?php echo $feed[2]; ?></h4>
</div>

 

I'm a little rusty on my CSS though, so that might be wrong

echo $feed[0].', '.$feed[1];

 

the . attaches the two variables .. http://us3.php.net/manual/en/language.operators.string.php

 

using html <h> tags though, you will always get a line break as they are used for headers .. headers are standalone unless specified otherwise using CSS.

Hey i tried the float setting already and it didnt help. All i need is that the second feed is smaller is there another way to do this?

 

Thanks again

you can just set the font size.

<div class="additional_info ie6fix" id='twitterbox'>
<?php echo $feed[0]; ?>
<span style="font-size:large" ><?php echo $feed[1]; ?></span>
<span style="font-size:small" ><?php echo $feed[2]; ?></span>
</div>

The problem im having using span tags is that the alignment is off. it goes on top of a picture that is to the left.

 

Thanks.

is this really php formatting or just straight html/css formatting?

[mikesta707]

hmm well to help I'd really have to see more code than what you provided. But this is pretty much an HTML/CSS problem, so you may have better luck if you take this to that forum
