Yes/No..

 

Its not PHP that does it, its HTML/CSS, PHP just sends it to the browser.

 

ie

echo "hello <font color=\"#00ff00\">world</font>";

im doing that but not getting a background around the word

echo "<font bground=\"#A3A3A3\">hello</font>";

Probably because you aren't using the correct html syntax.

 

<span style="background: #cccccc; color: #0000ff">Some text</span>

[MadTechie]

this is the PHP section not html,, but your need to look into span and background/style

your syntax is wrong,, i tell you how but you already asked th question in the HTML/CSS section so you know its not php...!

 

EDIT: LOL

okay

see discomatt post thats what you need
