hey everyone, i have a form i am validting and was wondering if i could store the span class of my errors in a seperate array that would be able to redisplay the locations the errors occurred in an .errortext instead of say a .basictext?

[code]if (isset($_POST['submit'])) {
$company = $_POST['CompanyName'];
$name = $_POST['realname'];
$email = $_POST['email'];
$domainName = $_POST['ListOrDomainName'];
$username = $_POST['Username'];
$password = $_POST['Password'];
$credit = $_POST['CreditCardNumber'];
$error1 = '';
$error = array();

if (empty($name))
{
$error[] = "Your Name";
}
elseif (!preg_match("/^([a-zA-Z])+/",$name))
{
  $error[] = "Your Name May Not Contain Numbers";
  $name="";
}

if(checkEmail($email) == FALSE)
{
  $error[]="E-Mail Address";
  $email = "";
}
if (empty($password)){
$error[]="";
}
elseif(strlen($password) < 6)
{
$error[]="Password";
}
if(!preg_match("/^([0-9])+/",$credit)){
$error[]="Credit Card Number";
}
if(count($error) > 0) {
    echo "<big><b>The Following Errors Were Found, Please Re-Enter:</b></big><br/>". implode('<br/>', $error). "</p>";
    } else {
require_once("formmail.php");
    exit;
  }
}
?>
<style>
    .basictext {
        font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
        font-size: 14px; color:#000066;
    }
    .errortext {
        font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
        font-size: 14px; color:#C00000; font-weight: bold;
    }
</style>
<tr>
<td class="left"><a><span class="<?print $text?>">Company Name:</td>

<td><input name="CompanyName" size="28" value="<?echo "$company"?>"></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class="left"><font color="#FF0000">Your Name :</font></td>
<td><input name="realname" size="28" value="<?echo "$name"?>"></td>
</tr>
[/code]

there are a few of the sections in my code where i would want to implement this.  any help is appreciated
thank you

I'm unclear on what the actual problem is. 

You're echoing the errors before you ever display the form or create the styles.  If you want to use a different class on the errors, just echo the errors later on.

that isn't all of my code, what i am trying to do is if there is an error in one of the fields i want to change the text of the label from black to red say.  The only thing is that if i have the class change on any error than everyone of the classes are going to be printed in the red text instead of just the areas that had the errors in them.  here is my full code, if it helps.

[code]<?php
function checkEmail($email)
{
  if(eregi("^[a-zA-Z0-9_]+@[a-zA-Z0-9\-]+\.[a-zA-Z0-9\-\.]+$]", $email))
  {
      return FALSE;
  }
  list($Username, $Domain) = split("@",$email);
  if(getmxrr($Domain, $MXHost))
  {
      return TRUE;
  }
  else
  {
      if(@fsockopen($Domain, 25, $errno, $errstr, 15))
      {
        return TRUE;
      }
      else
      {
        return FALSE;
      }
  }
}
if (isset($_POST['submit'])) {
$company = $_POST['CompanyName'];
$name = $_POST['realname'];
$email = $_POST['email'];
$domainName = $_POST['ListOrDomainName'];
$username = $_POST['Username'];
$password = $_POST['Password'];
$credit = $_POST['CreditCardNumber'];
$text = ".basictext"
$error = array();

if (empty($name))
{
$error[] = "";
}
elseif (!preg_match("/^([a-zA-Z])+/",$name))
{
  $error[] = "Your Name May Not Contain Numbers";
  $name="";
}

if(checkEmail($email) == FALSE)
{
  $error[]="E-Mail Address";
  $email = "";
}
if (empty($password)){
$error[]="";
}
elseif(strlen($password) < 6)
{
$error[]="Password";
$text = ".errortext";
}
if(!preg_match("/^([0-9])+/",$credit)){
$error[]="Credit Card Number";
}
if(count($error) > 0) {
    echo "<b>The Following Errors Were Found, Please Re-Enter:</b><br/>". implode('<br/>', $error). "</p>";
    } else {
require_once("formmail.php");
    exit;
  }
}
?>
