Hi!

I have a problem. How can I define font size in PHP page?

Becouse standard <font size="xx"> </font> doesn`t work...

And font size=+2 font doesn`t work either

What`s the tag for font size changing?

The <font> tag is deprecated. Try using CSS.

<span style="font-size: 14px;"> Text To Change </span>

Thx, I will try.

And another question. Is it possible to specify font size for all page? (that font will be in same size in whole page?)

yes it is possible, add the following code in <HEAD> of your page ..

<style type="text/CSS">

</style>

hmmmm...
But when I added this code:

<span style="font-size: 14px;">

it returned me an error:

Parse error: parse error, expecting `','' or `';''

it returns me always arror when I have "" in tags...why? what is wrong?

I been having the same problem. PHP seems to be limited on what tags you can use. I think it is we are trying javascript/html within a PHP secession. One other battle I am having within PHP is linking to a pop-up or off to another web page.

A PHP expert can tell us for sure.

PHP has actually absolutely nothing to do with this. Post your code and we'll take a look at it. You must be doing something else wrong...

i'm guessing that they are doing something like

echo "<span style="font-size: 14px;">"

if so you are getting the error because you have " in the echo
try

echo "<span style=\"font-size: 14px;\">"

or

echo "<span style='font-size: 14px;'>"

either will work
