Text changes

[Chris_Evans]

Hi there,
Let's say I use the following:

$menu .= "Hi<br/>";
$menu .= "Hi2<br/>";

How could I get PHP to put "<font class=\"menutext\">" and "</font>" at the beginning/end of each on of those pieces of text in $menu?

Thanks in advance,

Chris

would this work?

$menu .= "<font class=\"menutext\">Hi<br/></font>";
$menu .= "<font class=\"menutext\">Hi2<br/></font>";

anyway, don't you want
$menu .= "<span class=\"menutext\">Hi<br/></span >";
$menu .= "<span class=\"menutext\">Hi2<br/></span >";

Hi, yes it would but I didn't particularly want to write that in every field, therefore I would prefer it to be replaced. Also, why would I want to use <span>?

Why would you want to use <font>? What you're describing is what <span> was invented for.

Eh, well didn't know that. 🙂 Thanks for the help. I used the following eventually:

$array = array("Home","Contact Us");

foreach($array as $link) {
 $menu = "<span class=\"menulisting\">$link</span>";
}

echo $menu;

Just thought I'd post that, but I've changed it to a MySQL version now anyhow. 🙂

Thanks for the tips on span though,

Chris
