Adding CSS to PHP

[mzonas]

Hello. I have a problem again ...  I want to add some CSS to PHP, and I have external file for CSS. Why some elements work, and most element don't work with PHP/CSS files?

 

Here are examples:

 

CSS working elements:

.maintable {
  width: 90%;
  border-style: solid;
  border-width: 1px;
  border-color: #000000;
  background: #FFFFCC;
}

.headline {
  background: #009999;
  color: #FFFFFF;
  font-size: 12px;
  font-family: helvetica, sans-serif;
  text-align: center;
}

.mainrow {
  background: #FFFFCC;
  color: #000000;
  font-size: 12px;
  font-family: helvetica, sans-serif;
  text-align: left;
}

input {
  background: #FFFFCC;
  border: 1px solid #009999;
  color: #000000;
  size: 12px;
  font-size: 11px;
  font-family: helvetica, sans-serif;
}

a, a:visited, a:active {
  color: #000000;
  font-size: 12px;
  font-family: helvetica, sans-serif;
  text-decoration: none
}

a: hover {
  color: #000000;
  font-size: 12px;
  font-family: helvetica, sans-serif;
  text-decoration: underline;
}

.mainrow2 {
  background: #FFFFCC;
  color: #000000;
  font-size: 12px;
  font-family: helvetica, sans-serif;
  text-align: center;
}

.mainrow3 {
  background: #FFFFFF;
  color: #000000;
  font-size: 12px;
  font-family: helvetica, sans-serif;
  text-align: center;
}

 

And here are elements that do not work:

.main {
  width: 90%;
  border-style: solid;
  border-width: 1px;
  border-color: #000000;
  background: #FFFFFF;
}

.forumtable {
  width: 100%;
  border-style: solid;
  border-width: 1px;
  border-color: #FFFFFF;
}

.forumrow {
  background: #FFFFCC;
  color: #000000;
  font-size: 12px;
  font-family: helvetica, sans-serif;
  text-align: left;
}

 

And here is PHP page:

if ($pid == '')
{
$topic = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM cst_forum_topics") or die (mysql_error());
WHILE ($topic2 = mysql_fetch_array($topic))
{
  print '<table class="maintable">';
  print '<tr class="headline2">';
  print '<td>Topic Title: '.$topic2[topic].'</td>';
  print '</tr>';
  print '<tr class="forumrow">';
  print '<td>By: '.$topic2[starter].', '.$topic2[date].'</td>';
  print '</tr>';
  print '</table>';
  print '<br/>';

}

}

 

Element .maintable work perfectly just like .headline. However, .headline2, .forumrow do not work for me. Why ?

 

Thank you for any help ...

How did you add the CSS to the PHP file? Like this?

<?php
echo "<link rel='stylesheeet' href='myCSS.css' />";
?>

The problem seems to be with the html output not php/css

 

I noticed that the only class that was in your css and your php was forumrow the other classes I didn't see in your code example.

anyway you may have a css conflict.

 

try styling the table with an HTML mockup first, then if all works - make it dynamic.

there is no class='main' or class='forumtable'

[mzonas]

but they also don't work ...  ???

[ccrevcypsys]

they dont work because they arent in ur code anythere (php code)

 

if ($pid == '')
{
$topic = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM cst_forum_topics") or die (mysql_error());
WHILE ($topic2 = mysql_fetch_array($topic))
{
  print '<table class="maintable">';
  print '<tr class="headline2">';
  print '<td>Topic Title: '.$topic2[topic].'</td>';
  print '</tr>';
  print '<tr class="forumrow">';
  print '<td>By: '.$topic2[starter].', '.$topic2[date].'</td>';
  print '</tr>';
  print '</table>';
  print '<br/>';

}
