In one style sheet I set the look for list items in menu.php, but after adding some more list items- I wanted to change the look and feel of those additions. I tried making another class for them and adding them in menu.php, but it was a no go.
Do you have to leave PHP mode in order to apply styles in a script?
Thanks
You can use css the same with php as you do with straight html.
Can you clarify a bit? It sounds like you are having a css prob not php. What do you mean by leave php?
If you mean ?> and then do the css stuff and then <? then that is probably true. Not totally sure what you mean.
If you are, then you should definately leave php, css is er.... css, not php, so you use it like you would normally regardless of php/asp or anything else...

Technically yes you can but you need to escape your quotes for ids and classes:
<?php
<a href=\"somedoc.php\" class=\"mylink\">My Page</a>
?>
Is the code above the preferred way?
<a href=\"somedoc.php\" class=\"mylink\">My Page</a>
This is what I hope to do with PHP...$somedoc.css being the variable.
Madcat, if you want CSS to apply to a certain area, just use PHP to output that particular style in your head section. Otherwise just break out of PHP and use "normal" HTML code

....and I thought I had the monoploly on confusing posts
Is the code above the preferred way?
<body>
<a href="somedoc.php" class=<?php echo $myclass; ?>>My Page</a>
</body>
Or you could wrap you're php script around the link like this:
<?php
if ($somevar == $anothervar) {
?>
<a href="somedoc.php" class="mylink">My Page</a>
<?php
}
else
?>
<h4>No Link Available</h4>
<?php
//the rest of your php script...

<body>
<a href="somedoc.php" class="<?=$myclass;?>">My Page</a>
</body>

Did you really mean to use that equal sign?
$header=<<<EOF<html>
<head>
<title>My title</title>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="styles.css" />
</head>
<body>
EOF;
Notice there is no need to escape anythint and you can also use vars inside the EOF's and I think function calls...

Here's another use one you might not know...
Isn't that the story;)
I simply created sub-classes and applied them correct:
li.sub_net{
font: .9em verdana, helvetica, sans-serif;
background: #ffc;
padding: 6px 0 6px 10px;
}
echo ("<li><a href='index.html?networking=1'>" . "Networking" ."</a></li>");
if (isset($_GET['networking'])) {
echo ("<li class='sub_net'><a href='index.html' class='sub_net'>" . "Pricing" . "</a></li>");
}
Great suggestions for implementing style above.

When you click on any menu item (php menu) in my profile page the top logo image flickers and you can see the background come through.
What might be causing this considering the two are totally independent?
Madcat, I'm using Op 6.03 and I don't see what you're seeing. Anomoly?
Just caught the tricks part lorax ;)
