[SOLVED] Help adding font effects to a very small php bit

[Padgoi]

So I have this small PHP bit and I want a red and bold font on the line that says "This post has been deleted by:" but not sure how to get it in there.  Here's the bit:

 

		$post = 'This post has been deleted by:'. $usr;
	$ta = array (
				'post'        => $post,
						);

	$db_string = $this->ipsclass->DB->compile_db_update_string( $ta );

	$this->ipsclass->DB->simple_exec_query( array( 'update' => 'posts', 'set' => $db_string, 'where' => 'pid'.$pid ) );

 

Any help would be appreciated.

at a guess

change

$post = 'This post has been deleted by:'. $usr;

to

$post = '<font color="#FF0000"><strong>This post has been deleted by: $usr</strong></font>';

 

your need to test it in your IPB (also this should be in the third party section, as this is for IPB)

thanks, you helped me out, I actually figured it out myself with your help:

 

$post = '<font color="#FF0000"><strong>(This post has been deleted by: '.  $usr . ')';
