PHP or is this CSS?

[ItsWesYo]

I don't know if I would use PHP or CSS for this, but:

 

How would I make a number appear with WHITE text and a BLACK outline to it?

HTML or CSS

Could you, perhaps, elaborate on how to do this?

I think he means to have block letters... so something like this:

 

[marcus]

<style type="text/css">

.bg1 {
color:#000000;
padding:1px;
background-color:#FFFFFF;
border:1px solid #000000;
}

.bg2 {
color:#FFFFFF;
padding:1px;
background-color:#000000;
}
</style>

<span class="bg1">Example of Number 1</span><p>
<span class="bg2">Example of Number 2</span>

Max, yes.

 

mgal, that is sort of the idea, but I want it around the text. Not extra black/white around it.

 

And I don't want to make a lot of images of numbers.

use css. define a normal white style, and a shadow +2px black style.

 

then you would have to double up and get the styles to overlap. anchor them to the same tag or something.

 

post what you figure out.

Ugh.

 

I've been trying different CSS styles and none work.

you would have to make the forground style 50% transparent.
