Making PHP output Bold

Solution 1:

Simply add HTML strong tags into your print, removing on lines where it is not necessary.

while($row = mysql_fetch_array($oPlayerInfo))
{
  Print "<strong>".$row['FirstName']." ".$row['LastName']."</strong><br>";
  Print "<strong>Position: ".$row['Position']."</strong><br>";
  Print "<strong>Height: ".$row['Height']."</strong><br>";  
  Print "<strong>Weight: ".$row['Weight']."</strong><br>";
  Print "<strong>Birthdate: ".$row['DOB']."</strong><br>";
  Print "<strong>CNGHL Team: ".$row['CNGHLRights']."</strong><br>";
  Print "<strong>NHL Team: ".$row['Team']."</strong><br>";
  Print "<strong>Draft Year: ".$row['CNDraftYR']."</strong><br>";
  Print "<strong>Draft Position: ".$row['CNDraftPOS']."</strong><br>"; 
  Print "<strong>Drafted By: ".$row['CNDraftTEAM']."</strong><br>";
  Print "<img src=\"http://www.cnghl.biz/cnghldb/images/".$iPlayerID.".jpg\">";
}

With this

Print "<strong>Height: ".$row['Height']."</strong><br>";

The whole line will be bold. With the one below

Print "<strong>Height:</strong> ".$row['Height']."<br>";

Only the label will be bold.

Solution 2:

Try this to make firstname and lastname bold.

Print "<b>".$row['FirstName']." ".$row['LastName']."</b><br>"; //<b> and </b>

Solution 3:

Try like this...

<?php
while($row = mysql_fetch_array($oPlayerInfo))
{
    echo "<strong>"; // <---- Added here
    echo "".$row['FirstName']." ".$row['LastName']."<br>";
    echo "Position: ".$row['Position']."<br>";
    echo "Height: ".$row['Height']."<br>";
    echo "Weight: ".$row['Weight']."<br>";
    echo "Birthdate: ".$row['DOB']."<br>";
    echo "CNGHL Team: ".$row['CNGHLRights']."<br>";
    echo "NHL Team: ".$row['Team']."<br>";
    echo "Draft Year: ".$row['CNDraftYR']."<br>";
    echo "Draft Position: ".$row['CNDraftPOS']."<br>";
    echo "Drafted By: ".$row['CNDraftTEAM']."<br>";
    echo "</strong>"; // <-----Closing here
    echo "<img src=\"http://www.cnghl.biz/cnghldb/images/".$iPlayerID.".jpg\">";
}

Solution 4:

Well, I think that putting such an operation in an HTML file, it is a bad practice. I recommend using the MVC pattern.

Something like this...

Controller

<?php
    $rows = array();

    while($row = mysql_fetch_array($oPlayerInfo))
       $rows[] = $row;

    return $rows;

?>

View

<html>
    <head><title>Test</title></head>
    <body>
    <?php foreach($rows as $row): ?>
        <section>
            <div>
                <label>$row['FirstName']." ".$row['LastName']</label>
            </div>
            <div>
                <label>Position: ".$row['Position']</label>
            </div>
            <div>
                <label>"Height: ".$row['Height']</label>
            </div>
            <div>
                <label>Weight: ".$row['Weight']</label>
            </div>
            <div>
                <label>Birthdate: ".$row['DOB']</label>
            </div>
            <div>
                <label>CNGHL Team: ".$row['CNGHLRights']</label>
            </div>
            <div>
                <label>NHL Team: ".$row['Team']</label>
            </div>
            <div>
                <label>Draft Year: ".$row['CNDraftYR']</label>
            </div>
            <div>
                <label>Draft Position: ".$row['CNDraftPOS']</label>
            </div>
            <div>
                <label>Drafted By: ".$row['CNDraftTEAM']</label>
            </div>
            <div>
                <img src="http://www.cnghl.biz/cnghldb/images/".$iPlayerID.".jpg">
            </div>
        </section>
    <?php endforeach; ?>
    </body>
</html>
