Put your code in code tags please. if you want to add styles to something, do it like you would normally

 

<input type="text" class="myStyle" />

or use the inline style attribute

<input type="text" style="background-color: black" />

 

[lena_k198]

Where would I put this code? inside the php section?

[lena_k198]

I think you did not understand my question. I need to style the table in my email! The output of the submitted form.

 

How will I do that?

[mikesta707]

how would you normally style an html table? something like

<table class="tableStyle">

or

<table style="background-color:black" >

 

wherever your table is, add the style text in there. If your table is being created in the php, then you have to set the styles in the php. For example, if I wanted to change the following table

$table = '<table><td>Cell</td></table>';

 

to have a black background, and white font color, I could do

$table = '<table style="background-color:black; font-color: white"><td>Cell</td></table>';

 

[lena_k198]

where do I set a $table value?

 

sorry i am new with this

[lena_k198]

If I want my $message value to be black color and "bold" font what do I do?
