CSS by PHP

[chaosxkitten]

I have the hardest time spotting my own errors....

 

I'm writing some CSS that depends on PHP.

 

This is the php created css...

<?php

if (isset($_POST['submitted'])){

//variables from form
  
$bars2 = $_POST['stages'];
   $first2 = $_POST['first'];
   $last2 = $_POST['last'];
    //Separate the rgb values
   $fv = explode(",","$first");
   $lv = explode(",","$last");
    
   //Do some math to figure out the step value
   $n = ($bars - 1);
   $j1 = (($lv["0"] - $fv["0"])/$n);
   $j2 = (($lv["1"] - $fv["1"])/$n);
   $j3 = (($lv["2"] - $fv["2"])/$n);


//Variables and math.

$step = ($bars2 - 2);
$l = "0";
$w = (100 / $bars2);
$r = $fv["0"];
$g = $fv["1"];
$b = $fv["2"];

// gerneral div CSS

echo "div {
position: absolute;
top: 20px;
height: 600px;
}";


//First bar
echo "#start {
position: absolute;
left: $l%;
width: $w%;
background-color: rgb($first2);
}";

//Middle Bars
while ($step != 0){
    $r += $j1;
    $g += $j2;
    $b += $j3;
    $l += $w;
    
    $r2 = round($r);
    $g2 = round($g);
    $b2 = round($b);
    
    echo "#$step {
    position: absolute;
    left: $l%;
    width: $w%;    
    background-color: rgb($r2,$g2,$b2);
    }";
    $step -= 1;
}

$l += $w;

//Last bar
echo "#end {
position: absolute;
left: $l%;
width: $w%;
background-color: rgb($last2);
}";

}
?>

 

 

 

and this is the php that defines the div elements..

 

if (isset($_POST['submitted']))	{

    //variables from form
    $bars = $_POST['stages'];
  
    //Display necessary  div tags
    $div = ($bars - 2);

     echo '<div id="start"></div>';
    
    while ($div != 0){
	echo "<div id='$div'></div>";
	$div -= 1;
    }
    
     echo '<div id="end"></div>';

 

 

and here is the link of where I'm testing it...

Something is not letting the middle bar divs print, and I can't find the error. My loop seems to work because it adds the correct amount of space in the center.

 

 

Please don't hack me X.X

A css ID name can not start with a number.  It has to be a letter from a-z first.
