Question

I am using the following PHP code to print a table:

echo '<table> ';

echo '<tr>';

echo '<td> Cell 1';
echo '</td>';

echo '<td '.$myStyle.'> Cell 2';
echo '</td>';


echo '</tr>';

echo '</table> ';

$myStyle = 'style="color:red"';

My problem is the $myStyle cell attribute is not given to the cell unless if it is placed before it. Is there a way I can refresh the table after setting $myStyle so that the new attribute is taken? And I want it in a way where I keep my $myStyle variable.

Answer 1

use jquery OR Javascript on client side to accomplish this.

set an ID or class attribute of the target td then apply the following jquery like

html:

echo '<td id="mytd"> Cell 2 </td>';

jquery:

$(document.ready(function(){
$("#mytd").css("color","red");
});
