How to use css style in php

I guess you have your css code in a database & you want to render a php file as a CSS. If that is the case...

In your html page:

<html>
<head>
   <!- head elements (Meta, title, etc) -->

   <!-- Link your php/css file -->
   <link rel="stylesheet" href="style.php" media="screen">
<head>

Then, within style.php file:

<?php
/*** set the content type header ***/
/*** Without this header, it wont work ***/
header("Content-type: text/css");


$font_family = 'Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif';
$font_size = '0.7em';
$border = '1px solid';
?>

table {
margin: 8px;
}

th {
font-family: <?=$font_family?>;
font-size: <?=$font_size?>;
background: #666;
color: #FFF;
padding: 2px 6px;
border-collapse: separate;
border: <?=$border?> #000;
}

td {
font-family: <?=$font_family?>;
font-size: <?=$font_size?>;
border: <?=$border?> #DDD;
}

Have fun!


Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) is a style sheet language used for describing the presentation semantics (the look and formatting) of a document written in a markup language. more info : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cascading_Style_Sheets CSS is not a programming language, and does not have the tools that come with a server side language like PHP. However, we can use Server-side languages to generate style sheets.

<html>
<head>
<title>...</title>
<style type="text/css">
table {
margin: 8px;
}

th {
font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
font-size: .7em;
background: #666;
color: #FFF;
padding: 2px 6px;
border-collapse: separate;
border: 1px solid #000;
}

td {
font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
font-size: .7em;
border: 1px solid #DDD;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<?php>
echo "<table>";
echo "<tr><th>ID</th><th>hashtag</th></tr>";
while($row = mysql_fetch_row($result))
{
echo "<tr onmouseover=\"hilite(this)\" onmouseout=\"lowlite(this)\"><td>$row[0]</td>                <td>$row[1]</td></tr>\n";
}
echo "</table>";
?>
</body>
</html>
