Help need on code / Color and format

smartcard

I have the following code, where I wanted to:

1) Color the text display of $strPrice to RED.

2) Display the $strPrice to be formated like $2,380 instead of $2380.95 (Adding thousand comma and removing the two decimals)

Can some body please help me on this.

		<?php
							$strPrice = $currency_logo . " " . $arr_row["item_price"];

						if ($currency_id <> 1)
						{
							$curresult = mysql_query("select currency_id, currency_abbr, currency_buyingrate,currency_sellingrate from currencytype where currency_id=$currency_id");
							if (mysql_num_rows($curresult))
							{
								$currencyrow = mysql_fetch_array($curresult);
								$intPrice = round($arr_row["item_price"] / $currencyrow["currency_sellingrate"],2) ;
								$strPrice = $currency_logo . "" .$intPrice ;
							}

						}

					?>
                    <?print ($strPrice);?>

Take a look at [man]number_format/man for formatting the output as you want.

To display the text as red then you I would use HTML <span></span> tags and CSS

rincewind456, Thanks a lot for your reply. But I am not very good at coding, so I would really applicate if someone can suggest me the codes I would use?

Did you visit the manual page rincewind linked you to? Read over the function's description and look at the examples - they pretty well spell out how to use it. If you still can't get it, show us what you tried.

I'm not trying to simply be stubborn here; spoonfeeding code doesn't help you learn compared to making your best attempt and having someone correct you on what you didn't get.

As Brad says any example given would be no different to that described in the manual.

For the HTML code this is how to do it

<html>
<head>
<title></title>
<style type="text/css">
<!--
.coloredText{color: #FF0000;}
-->
</style>
</head>
<body>
<p>This is <span class="coloredText">Red</span> text.</p>
</body>
</html>
