Try: echo '<td style="' . $newcolor .'">' . $row[1] . '</td>'; -----Mensagem original----- De: Phil Matt [mailto:admin@xxxxxxxxxxxx] Enviada em: sexta-feira, 20 de novembro de 2009 14:12 Para: php-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Assunto: CSS and variables De-lurking here. I'm trying, with no success, to use some CSS styling on my PHP output. Here's the code I want to style: echo '<tr><td class="spacer">'.$row[0].'</td><td>'.$row[1].'</td> I want to use a CSS style for the second <td> cell, picking up the style from the value of a variable. I tried this: $newcolor = "color: red"; <td style= "<? echo($newcolor): ?>">'.$row[1].'</td> But it doesn't work. No problem with th "spacer" class, works fine. I just can't get the syntax for pulling a CSS style from a PHP var.
