I’m just learning php, To practice i want to try and make a php function that can generate CSS3 gradients easily in a document.

I am running into HTTP Error 500. here’s the code :

<?php
function cgrad($c1,$c2,$applyto)
{
echo 
"<style type="text/css">
$applyto {
background-image: -ms-linear-gradient(top, $c1 0%, $c2 100%);
background-image: -moz-linear-gradient(top, $c1 0%, $c2 100%);
background-image: -o-linear-gradient(top, $c1 0%, $c2 100%); 
background-image: -webkit-gradient(linear, left top, left bottom, color-stop(0, $c1), color-stop(1, $c2));
background-image: -webkit-linear-gradient(top, $c1 0%, $c2 100%);
background-image: linear-gradient(to bottom, $c1 0%, $c2 100%);
height : 100%;
width : 100%;}
</style>";
};
?>
<html>
<head>
<?php
cgrad(#FFFFFF,#000000,body);
?>
</head>
<body>
testing
</body>
</html>

Any help is much appreciated.

    echo 
"<style type="text/css">

    You can’t put double quotes inside double quotes. You can either escape them (like the other answers say) or use single quotes.

    echo 
"<style type='text/css'>

    Also, you need quotes when calling cgrad.

    <?php
cgrad('#FFFFFF','#000000','body');
?>
