tag with php result-syntax

[25lez25]

If you have defined in your CSS on top - rightcolumn

after you run a php set of commands, and you want to echo a php result with a field "Name" from your mysql table,
how and where do you place something like the following in your code so the result appears in rightcolumn:

<DIV class="rightcolumn">
echo "$Name>";

</DIV>

I'm not quite sure what you mean. Perhaps you could share what "rightcolumn" is?

Very new at this but something like this for rightcolumn

<style type="text/css">

BODY { font-family: times new roman, verdana }

#rightcolumn {
position: absolute;
left:somepx;
top:px;
font-size: somepx;
}

Do you just want to echo $name in a DIV with that id?

<div id="rightcolumn">
<?php echo $name; ?>
</div>

or

echo '<div id="rightcolumn">'.$name.'</div>';

One minor problem I think, is that you have defined the style as an id element by using #, but you're using it as a class element.
