[RESOLVED] PHP text not retaining formatting.

dmacman1962

Hi all,

I have some PHP driven text that is not retaining its formatting and I have read the source on both of the following pages for that text and cannot see what happened.

This page the text in the footer is correct, (brown text)

Correct text color.

This page the text in the footer is no longer brown and the text in the table on the left, (Golden Fleece Award, Upcoming Conferences, etc) also will not retain their text color formatting.

Incorrect Text Color

I can't see why.

Anyone see the problem?

Thanks,

Don

i dont know the problem, but you should try cleaning up the HTML and CSS to ensure it will work.

In CSS place:

#divIDName .yourBrownTextClass a {
your link styles
}
#divIdName .yourBrownTextClass a:hover {
your hover link styles
}

and try to keep your html valid. as it stands now there's quite a bit of errors on the page, so the biggest problem with miss matching colors and text styles comes from improper html code.
most problems can be resolved by keeping the HTML valid. I dont want to seem like I'm coming down on your or something, but it really is in your best interest. It will allow your page to be displayed the way you want it to be, and increase accessability. Which are two very good things.

No! In Opera the footer colour is the same on both pages.

Thanks rincewind456,

I checked with IE (windows) and its ok, I am getting this problem in Firefox 1.5.x.

Hmmm

I resolved this, it was a missing "#" in the color statements in both places. Only FF was this an issue.

Thanks all,
